I’m so proud of the “Robots Rising” story that Miles O’Brien and I did with the PBS Newshour, I have to post it front and center!

As we enter the 21st Century, the global challenges we face must be tackled using the tools of science & technology.

My name is Kate Tobin, and I am an independent multimedia writer and producer specializing in science journalism.  I was a senior producer with CNN's Science & Technology Unit for 18 years,  and I have extensive experience covering science, technology, space and the environment.  A graduate of Agnes Scott College with degrees in both English and biology, I seek to bring my passion for storytelling to the critically import realm of the sciences.  I am based in Atlanta.

I have some really exciting projects going on right now.  I am currently the Executive Producer of the National Science Foundation’s “Science Nation” series, which highlights  the cool research that NSF funds.  We just passed 100 projects for “Science Nation” - and I am so pleased with the work that we’ve done over the past 18 months!

Additionally, I am working closely with Miles O’Brien as the Field Producer for the PBS Newshour Science Unit.  I am truly jazzed to have the opportunity to work on longer science & tech pieces for a news outfit with such integrity.

I would be very interested in talking to you and working with you on projects you have in development.  

Please look around my site, and let me know if you have any questions or would like further information.   Thanks for visiting me!
