Katy Tur

In 2017, Tur received the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Journalism.

Tur reflected on covering the Trump campaign and his treatment of her at campaign rallies in an article for Marie Claire. In September 2017, Tur published a book, Unbelievable: My Front-Row Seat to the Craziest Campaign in American History, recounting her experience in covering the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump. The book spent several weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list.

From 2006 to 2009, Tur was in a relationship with then-MSNBC political commentator and sportscaster Keith Olbermann. Tur married Tony Dokoupil, a correspondent for CBS News, on October 27, 2017, in Utah. She announced that she was pregnant with her and Dokoupil's first child together on December 13, 2018. She gave birth to a son in April 2019. She also has two stepchildren from Dokoupil's first marriage.

In 2009, Tur joined NBC's local station in New York City, WNBC-TV, and then rose to the flagship NBC News at the national network level. That year she was awarded AP’s Best Spot News Award for coverage of the March 2008 crane collapse on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. While at NBC News, she covered the death of Cory Monteith, a motorcycle attack on an SUV, and the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.

Tur is the daughter of journalists Zoey Tur and Marika Gerrard. She graduated from Brentwood School (2001), and from the University of California, Santa Barbara (2005) with a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy. She is of Jewish descent on Zoey's side.
