"When I met Julie Chan, a former television anchor who said she wanted to become a talk show host, I immediately thought of creating a late-night talk show series with her. She has the bubbliest and most joyous personality I've ever met," said Quentin Lee, showrunner and creator of Midnight Snack.
From working as the CBS morning anchor in Oregon to hosting and producing her own one-hour morning show, Julie Chan is a thoughtful commentator and gifted journalist, known for in-depth interviews (i.e., Andrew Morton, Joan Lunden) where she brings her subjects' authentic stories to life. A proud USC Trojan (B.S., Business Marketing, 1998), Chan lives in San Marino where she juggles raising her three teenage daughters with her love of travel, playing tennis, selling real estate and hosting parties galore.
