Carol Hirschfeld delivered the nation's nightly news on TV3, with co-anchor John Campbell from 1998 – 2005. Before fronting TV3 news, Carol had spent much of her time directing and producing the program.

Over her time delivering the 6pm news, she became without a doubt one of New Zealand's most admired and respected news presenters.

Carol has worked in journalism for over 20 years now and is an accomplished editor, producer and reporter.

Before joining TV3, Carol spent twelve years with TVNZ – working as a producer for the “Holmes” show and presenting shows such as "Fair Go", “Assignment”, “Frontline” and "Crimewatch". She became accustomed to working both behind and in front of the cameras.

Carol went on to be a senior producer and specialist interviewer for “Campbell Live”, continuing her successful on-air relationship with John Campbell.

These days she is the Head of Programming for Maori Television.

Carol is a well known TV celebrity who transfers her communication skills easily to the podium to MC at a very professional level. She is also available to MC along with John Campbell.
