Get to know Minnesota Now’s new host Nina Moini through the people who shaped her

Minnesota Now

I am not new to MPR News, I’ve worked here for seven years as a reporter, editor and host. But I am new to serving as your host for Minnesota Now. The producers of the show suggested we put together a story to help introduce me to you all.

I always say other Minnesota journalists helped to really raise me and inspired me to pursue a career that I have considered a calling since I was very young. I hope you will enjoy this little trip down memory lane. Senior producer Aleesa Kuznetsov and I visited some of the people and newsrooms that have shaped my work.
