Widely recognized for her role, over six seasons, on Bravo's popular reality series, The Real Housewives of New York City, Carole Radziwill first started her career as a journalist with ABC News. While working for the documentary unit, Peter Jennings Reporting, she not only reported on foreign stories in Cambodia, Haiti, India, but was also stationed in Israel during the 1990 Gulf War. In 2001, she spent six weeks in Afghanistan embedded with the 101st Airborne Division at the U.S. military base in Kandahar. Carole went on to produce stories for several magazine shows including 20/20, Primetime Live, and DayOne. Her story on Vietnam Veteran Bobby Muller's anti-landmine campaign in Cambodia would earn Radziwill the first of three EMMY Awards. With a career that spanned nearly fifteen years, her additional accolades include an RFK Humanitarian Award, as well as a GLAAD Award for her profile on Billy Bean, the first openly gay baseball player. Carole left ABC News in 2003 to write her first book, What Remains: A Memoir of Fate, Friendship and Love. Published in 2005, What Remains spent twenty weeks on The New York Times Best-Sellers list. She signed with Glamour magazine to write a monthly column in which she interviewed celebrated people from the worlds of politics, popular culture, media and fashion. Her first novel, The Widow's Guide to Sex & Dating, was published in February 2014.
