Savannah Clark Guthrie (born December 27, 1971) is an American journalist and attorney, working for NBC News. She has been co-anchor of The Today Show since July 2012. Guthrie joined NBC News in September 2007 as a legal analyst and correspondent, regularly reporting on trials throughout the country. After serving as a White House correspondent between 2008 and 2011 and as co-anchor of the MSNBC program The Daily Rundown in 2010 and 2011, Guthrie was announced as the co-host of Today's third hour alongside Natalie Morales and Al Roker. In that role, she substituted as news anchor and main co-host and appeared as the chief legal analyst across all NBC platforms. Guthrie ceased to be the third hour co-host and chief legal analyst in 2012 when she replaced Ann Curry as co-anchor of Today.
Savannah Clark Guthrie, named for her great-grandmother, was born in Melbourne, Australia, where her father was stationed for work. Her family returned to the United States and moved to Tucson, Arizona two years later. She graduated from Amphitheater High School in Tucson. Guthrie received her undergraduate degree in journalism from the University of Arizona, graduating Cum laude in 1993. She was a member of the Arizona Alpha chapter of Pi Beta Phi. While covering the trial of Michael Jackson, Guthrie met English-born BBC News presenter Mark Orchard. After Orchard divorced his first wife, journalist Anne Kornblut, the couple married in December 2005. Guthrie and Orchard divorced in 2009, and later that year she began a relationship with Democratic political and communications consultant Michael Feldman.
They became engaged in May 2013 while vacationing on Turks and Caicos. They married on March 15, 2014 in Tucson, with Guthrie announcing two days later she was four months pregnant. Guthrie lives in the SoHo neighborhood of Lower Manhattan. On August 13, 2014, Guthrie gave birth to daughter Vale Guthrie Feldman in a New York City hospital. The baby weighed in at 8 lb 5 oz (3.77 kg) and was 19.5 inches (500 mm) long. It is the couple's first child together. Ms. Guthrie has spoken of the importance to her in raising her daughter and in "making sure that Vale grows up knowing about God and Jesus and faith is, I think, one of my most important responsibilities." On June 7, 2016, she announced she was pregnant with her second child.
