Donna Davis with President Reagan at the White House
During Donna’s news career, she met a lot of interesting people, including President Reagan as well as Ted Koppel, the first host of ABC’s Nightline. She also interviewed President Bill Clinton. But, it’s the stories of people whose names you’ve never heard that Donna really enjoyed.
During her first television news job in Arkansas, she championed a story about a toddler who needed a liver transplant. Amber Rowden’s battle eventually changed the state’s transplant law, clearing the way to save many lives.
She also covered “Wednesday’s Child” featuring hard to adopt children. The stories led to increased adoptions and many more happy families. While working at the same station, she started live reports ringing bells for the Salvation Army. The initiative grew into a Media Day Challenge, which raised more money in one day than had been raised all year.
