Tonya Mosley has always been fascinated by stories that illustrate the complexities of the human condition. When she was a kid, a friend’s father nicknamed her "Scoop." It was the perfect name for what Tonya would one day become. As a journalist, Tonya has used her curiosity and tenacity to find and expose truths for the greater good of society. Tonya currently serves as the co-host of Here & Now, a daily national newsmagazine show reaching 4.5 million people every week. Prior to Hear & Now, Tonya served as the Silicon Valley bureau chief for KQED, leading a team of journalists covering the impacts of technology companies on society, and prior to that as a television correspondent for Al Jazeera America and reporter and anchor in several cities throughout the country. In 2015, Tonya was awarded a John S. Knight Journalism Fellowship at Stanford University where she co-created a workshop for journalists on the impacts of implicit bias, and co-wrote a Belgian/American experimental study on the effects of protest coverage.

Tonya has won several national awards for her work, including an Emmy Award in 2016 for her televised piece "Beyond Ferguson," and a national Edward R. Murrow award for her public radio series "Black in Seattle."
