An oral history with Karen Toulon, a role model for newsroom achievement and diversity.

Since joining Bloomberg News in 1999, Karen has led by example, helping Bloomberg News’ global journalists establish a cohesive identity and encouraging team members to realize their full potential

Karen has demonstrated through her accomplishments that journalists and their newsroom colleagues will rise to meet a wide variety of career challenges, if they believe in themselves and if others will believe in them.

In the summer of 2020, Toulon assumed a position as a senior writer on Bloomberg’s global, cross-platform team that explores inequality in all its forms.

“The whole notion of role modeling is something I take very seriously,” Toulon explains in her oral history, acknowledging that she considers herself a representative for her gender, race, and “a profession that I continue to adore.”

This oral history, conducted by Dean Rotbart, editor-in-chief of NewsLuminaries.com, was recorded on February 19, 2020.
