Emmy Award–winning reporter and news anchor Jen Maxfield has seen just about everything in her more than two decades on the air. But what happens after a story is reported, once the cameras are turned off? She introduces readers to people whose hopefulness and perseverance will inspire. She follows up on stories that have been transformative for the subjects—and for her—to uncover what’s transpired in the years since her original reporting. Spotlighting inspirational everyday people, many of whom have endured tremendous hardship, Maxfield updates readers on a woman whose life was saved by her toddler after a violent attack by her boyfriend; families devastated by natural disasters and the communities that aided them; the relatives of a young man killed by a terrorist; and more. Maxfield joined NBC New York in 2013. Prior to joining the station, she worked for Eyewitness News (ABC7) in New York City as a reporter and substitute anchor for ten years.
