Her experience in broadcast journalism includes working as a reporter, producer, and host for local and national programs.

Hansen is the daughter of Edwin Hansen〔http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=4709630〕 and Lois Hansen. The spelling of Hansen's first name came from that of Liane de Pougy (1869–1950). She was married to fellow NPR host Neal Conan with whom she has a son (Connor) and daughter (Casey). In April 2011, Hansen stated publicly that she and Conan were divorcing, in a parting described as "amicable".
