Hall received congratulatory remarks from many of her television peers, including Whoopi Goldberg and Today co-anchor Hoda Kotb. Her show has also been renewed for another season and is already off to an incredible start with a revealing interview with politician Andrew Gillum and Avengers’ star Chris Evans.
Hall is a graduate of Temple University and a member of the board of trustees. She has also led shows such as MSNBC Live With Tamron Hall and Deadline: Crime With Tamron Hall on Investigation Discovery.
