Diana Miller has been named Executive Producer of CBS THIS MORNING. Miller has been with the program since 2014 and currently serves as Senior Broadcast Producer.

"Diana is exceptionally positioned for this role," said Zirinsky. "She's an experienced journalist and collaborative leader. Her editorial vision, innovative ideas and ability to execute have had a positive impact on the broadcast for years and will help take the show into the future."

"CBS THIS MORNING is the best morning news show on television, delivering REAL NEWS that matters to people's lives." said Miller. "I am honored to lead such an incredible team as we continue to bring our audience exclusive stories that only CBS News can provide. It is a thrill to partner with Susan Zirinsky as we build on the show's strong momentum of recent months."

Miller is an Emmy, Peabody, and DuPont award-winning producer and proven newsroom leader. She has led the broadcast in recent months as it gained critical acclaim for numerous exclusive interviews and groundbreaking reporting including investigations into the Catholic Church abuse scandal, an exclusive interview with embattled Virginia governor Ralph Northam; the first interviews with 2020 presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Beto O'Rourke; the first interviews with the two women who allege Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax sexually assaulted them; and Gayle King's exclusive interviews with R. Kelly and his accusers. Miller also co-executive produced "The Gayle King Interview with R. Kelly" primetime special which delivered a significant audience and ratings victory for the network.

Miller joined CBS THIS MORNING in 2014 as a Senior Producer and was named Senior Broadcast Producer in June 2016, responsible for overseeing the daily editorial programming and staffing of the two-hour program. Miller has overseen award-winning investigations and enterprise reporting such as Norah O'Donnell's Emmy-winning report on sexual assault in the U.S. Air Force Academy. She has led breaking news coverage of pivotal stories including the Las Vegas massacre, hurricanes Harvey and Maria, terror attacks in Paris and Brussels, the 2016 Presidential election, the royal wedding of Prince HARRY and Meghan Markle, and the funeral of President George H.W.
