Chris Cramer is executive vice president and managing director of CNN International, responsible for the CNN International directorate. Cramer is based in CNN’s world headquarters in Atlanta and is a member of the CNN Executive Committee. Before joining CNN in April 1996, Cramer was the Head of Newsgathering for the BBC and sat on the BBC’s News and Current Affairs Management Board. In his five years as head of newsgathering, the BBC achieved some of its finest successes in news coverage. During this time, Cramer restructured the way BBC journalists worked, implementing bi-media reporting (for both television and radio) and multi-tasking. Throughout his 25 years at the BBC in both radio and TV, Cramer worked his way up from regional reporter to news organizer to managing the national and international desks. Cramer began his journalism career as a reporter for The News, a leading regional newspaper in Portsmouth, eventually becoming a chief reporter after five years.
