REMEMBERING LEONARD LAUDER. As I read the many tributes to this incredible man who the world recently lost, I am deeply grateful to have met him. I had the privilege of creating a story about his business accomplishments, philanthropy work and service as a United States naval officer. When speaking with Leonard, he made me feel like I was the only person in the room. His employees told me he was known for treating everyone with that level of respect. He grew up helping his mother develop her cosmetics business, Estée Lauder. It started as a small family company and, with Leonard’s expertise, blossomed into an international corporation with counters in every major U.S. department store. Leonard was the chief executive for nearly two decades.

He was one of the most gracious people I have met. When I spoke with him at his visit to a Nordstrom store, throngs of shoppers and employees applauded him as if a rock star had graced their presence. Leonard smiled and waved, taking the time to make eye contact with each person who approached him. #LeonardLauder #Tribute #Remembrance #EsteeLauder #Cosmetics #BobbiBrown #Aveda #MAC

FROM REJECTION TO MUSICAL ACCLAIM. This story features revered bassist, Ron Carter, who has recorded over 2000 albums and performed around the world. He shares his experiences in overcoming intense prejudice and his advice for aspiring artists. The idea for this piece came from a class assignment in my journalism graduate program. You may have watched my amazing professor, Dr. Wayne Marshall, on CNN analyzing a major music-based lawsuit. If you are interested in hearing more about this unique course that teaches how to report on music and the arts, here is my blog post about the experience: https://katherinechloecahoon.com/interview-with-music-legend/ #RonCarter #BlackHistoryMonth #OvercomingPrejudice #Discrimination #Journalism #Graduate #Degree #WayneMarshall #Ethnomusicologist #Harvard #Professor #News #Reporting #Reporter #Anchor #MMJ #Journalist #Journalism

CHILDHOOD HOME IN FLAMES. As someone born in Los Angeles, I studied the fire maps while flames decimated buildings, including my first childhood home. My heart ached as people lost everything. Our church boundaries included many areas where fires scorched the land. Residents helped each other and those from other states came to their aid. Volunteers say they have not slept for days as they continue battling this nightmare. What touched me most was how, amidst the devastation, people uplifted each other. #CaliforniaWildfires #Community #Loss

BILLS’ FANS CONVERGE FROM THREE DIFFERENT CONTINENTS! For this story, I interviewed three Bills’ fans from around the world who traveled a total of nearly 40 hours to meet up and watch the team play the Rams this Sunday. I became a Bills fanfare news reporter in 2019 and have seen immense dedication to the team. Many fans wake up between the early hours of 2 and 4 a.m., to prepare their tailgating food, pick out their good luck jerseys and paint their faces in the team’s colors. Despite sleep deprivation, the fans’ enthusiasm never wanes. Every moment spent covering Bills tailgating is exciting! #BuffaloBills #Bills #GoBills #Buffalo #BuffaloNY #LetsGoBuffalo #NFL #Football #NFLFootball #Fans #BillsMafia #Italy #Australia #BillsBackers #CaptainBuffalo #AroundTheWorld #Worldwide #Tailgating #HammersLot #Stadium #AwayGame #LosAngeles #News #Reporter #Anchor #Animator #VideoCreator

‘TIS THE SEASON! As I drove into Western New York’s Treetop Acres, Christmas trees extended as far as the eye could see against a backdrop of puffy clouds. When I got out of my car and unloaded my camera equipment to film a story for the news, it felt like I had stepped inside a Hallmark movie. Some residents have been coming to Treetop Acres for over three decades, beginning when the family-run operation opened in 1990.

As a journalist, I love covering holiday stories. Treetop Acres’ founder, John Fuerch, says most trees get snapped up the weekend after Thanksgiving. The tradition continues this year with new owners, Patrick Barczys and Liz Chatterton. Here is my report from when John and his wife, Vicki, owned the farm. The story got picked up nationally and was shown in a variety of states, including Florida, where the holiday forecast does not include snow, but the state’s residents still love Christmas trees! #TisTheSeason #ChristmasTrees #Seasonal #Favorites #ChristmasTreeFarm #TreetopAcres #Holidays #News #Reporter #Anchor #Journalist #Animator #VideoEditor

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Here is a picture from the first time I covered a Comic-Con as a broadcast journalist. To get into character, I dressed up as news reporter April O’Neil in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. Now this outfit lives in the Halloween costume section of my wardrobe. At this time every year, I remember that fun experience. #ComicCon #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles #Halloween #News #TVNews #Reporter #Anchor
