Alice Hibbert

Alice Hibbert is an international news and current affairs presenter and correspondent. She is the lead female anchor on Russia Today, the Moscow-based 24 hour news channel. Alice previously worked at ITN’s London Tonight before moving to Russia in 2005 to front and produce RT’s business programme. As well as honing her knowledge of all things Russian, Alice has anchored the major international stories of the past four years and presented a number of lifestyle programmes. She is also regularly commissioned as a voice-over artist.

Alice presented RT's coverage of the election and inauguration of Barack Obama, January’s Gaza/Israel conflict, and the death of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin. As a correspondent, Alice was one of the first foreign journalists to report from South Ossetia during the Russia/Georgia conflict. She also reported on the 2008 Russian Presidential election from the Far Eastern city of Vladivostock. Following their vote for greater autonomy, she produced a series of reports from Greenland.

In 2007, she was chosen to anchor RT’s New Year's Eve broadcast which launched the channel onto the US networks. That broadcast was carried live on the big screens in New York's Times Square.

Aside from news, Alice has branched out into other areas such as entertainment, features, and documentaries. Fronting RT’s “Russia Close-Up” series, she has travelled across the country – from the oil platforms of the Caspian to the Eskimos of the Arctic regions - reporting on its hugely varied demographic and cultural makeup.

A History and Drama undergraduate, Alice also holds an MPhil in Modern History from Cambridge University as well as a diploma in Broadcast Journalism form Cardiff University. Alice chairs conferences and seminars and is a highly skilled conference facilitator. She also has a wealth of experience hosting events and award ceremonies, both at home and abroad.
