Mika Brzezinski is the co-host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe. In 2015 she founded “Know Your Value,” a nationwide movement—in partnership with NBCUniversal—that supports an empowered and inclusive community aimed to recognize women for their worth in business and in life. She is also the author of four best-selling books.

Prior to joining MSNBC, Brzezinski was an anchor of CBS’s Evening News Weekend Edition and a CBS news correspondent, who frequently contributed to CBS Sunday Morning and 60 Minutes. She was inducted into the Cable News Hall of Fame in 2016 and served as a “Visiting Fellow” at the Institute of Politics at Harvard’s Kennedy School in the fall of 2017. In 2018, she was awarded the Matrix Award from the premier organization for female communications professionals, New York Women in Communications.

In 2020, Mika’s “Know Your Value” partnered with Forbes to create its first ever 50 Over 50 list, highlighting 50 women over the age of 50 who have achieved incredible success later in life, are paying it forward, and are laying the runway for the next generation of empowered women. The list and extended editorial was released in June 2021 in a special edition Inclusive Capitalism issue of Forbes magazine and amplified across all NBCU and Forbes’ platforms.
