Emily Maitlis (born 6 September 1970) is a British journalist and newsreader for the BBC. She presents news programming across the national television channels of the BBC, including ''Newsnight'' and bulletins on BBC One and the BBC News Channel. In January 2014, she became acting political editor of ''Newsnight'' until the maternity leave of Allegra Stratton ended later that year. ==Career== Maitlis was born to British parents in Canada but raised in Sheffield, where she was educated at the local King Edward VII School. Her first occupation was as a trainee hairdresser. A graduate of Queens' College, Cambridge, she speaks fluent Spanish, Italian and French, as well as some Mandarin.〔("'Flirtation, seduction and betrayal'", ) - interview, ''The Guardian'', 6 March 2006. Retrieved on 14 July 2007. "Maitlis, who speaks fluent Spanish, Italian and French (and "crap" Mandarin), is no easy touch."〕 Prior to working in news, she was a documentary maker in Cambodia and China. She worked for the NBC network and was based in Hong Kong. Previously, she spent six years with NBC Asia, initially as a business reporter creating documentaries, and then as a presenter in Hong Kong covering the collapse of the tiger economies in 1997.〔("Emily Maitlis" ) - profile, "BBC Newsnight", 30 March 2006.

Maitlis is now one of the main presenters of ''Newsnight'' on BBC Two, with Evan Davis, Kirsty Wark and Laura Kuenssberg. She also presents relief shifts on the BBC News channel, including the ''BBC News at Five'', and may occasionally present the ''BBC News at One'' which is also broadcast on BBC One. Maitlis was a regular presenter on BBC News during 2006, joining as part of a new line-up in April to present alongside Ben Brown from 7 pm–10 pm during the week, but was replaced by Joanna Gosling when she went on maternity leave. On Maitlis' return, she began presenting Mondays 2 pm–5 pm alongside Jon Sopel until 2013, and currently Simon McCoy on Mondays. During 2005, Maitlis appeared as the question-master on the game show ''The National Lottery: Come And Have A Go''. She has also presented ''BBC Breakfast''. From May 2006 until July 2007, she presented ''STORYFix'' on BBC News, a light-hearted look at the week's news set to up-beat music. In July 2007, Maitlis was appointed as a contributing editor to ''The Spectator'' magazine, an unpaid post. This had been approved by her immediate boss, the head of BBC TV news Peter Horrocks, but the decision was subsequently overturned by his superior, the BBC News director Helen Boaden.〔Stephen Brook ("BBC criticised for 'Vicky Pollard management'", ) ''The Guardian'', 11 July 2007.
