“In nearly thirty years of broadcasting I have rarely encountered someone like Catherine Lathem. A relentless perfectionist who has a command of narrative and story, and more importantly, what connects with an audience. Through her decades of award winning work with CTV News, Catherine cut through the noise every day, boiling down complicated and sometimes confusing issues, always with an eye on what really mattered: how does this impact ordinary people? Whether it was in the courtroom, at the crime scene, or in a living room listening to an incredibly personal story, Catherine’s journalism was always at the top of our industry. She is a trusted voice and presence in the field, in the newsroom and behind the anchor desk.”
Graham Richardson, CTV Ottawa Chief News Anchor
