About James Westhead
- 2 Oct 06, 09:45 AM
I've been based in Washington, reporting on the US for the BBC, since November 2005. I'm the late reporter here in the bureau, so I'm responsible for overnight coverage on BBC World Service radio, World TV, and the UK TV and radio morning programmes.
My previous role was in London, where I was the BBC's education and family correspondent for the One & Six O'Clock News programmes. Before that, I specialised as a health correspondent, working first for BBC regional TV in London and then for BBC News 24 when it launched in 1997.
I started my broadcasting career as a reporter with BBC Radio Kent in 1990.
