Biography

Sarah is one of the main anchors on Radio 4’s flagship Today Programme and presents HARDtalk on BBC World Television. In nearly 20 years at the BBC she has presented many of its news programmes from bulletins to Newsnight and BBC Breakfast. She was also one of the very first anchors on the BBC’s rolling News Channel. She has presented two series of “The Educators” for BBC Radio 4 and, in 2014, the hugely popular “My Teacher is an App” which explored the phenomenal changes in education being brought about by technology.

Sarah studied biology at Bristol University, before beginning a career in finance with Natwest. At the age of 24 she made the leap into journalism, first working as a reporter and presenter at Channel Television in Guernsey and Jersey.

In 1994 she moved to London as a freelance TV news reporter. After joining the staff of Reuters she moved to Sky News, before heading to the BBC in 1997.
