Bio

Giuliana is a force both on-camera and off. She has been anchor and managing editor of E! News since January 2005. Since that time, E! News viewership has risen over 50 percent across the board. She joined E! News as a correspondent in 2002, handling a variety of stories and events.

Her E! News Special Nicole Richie: Her Simple Life won a Prism Commendation Award. Giuliana was the executive producer, writer and host of this special.

Her debut book, Think Like a Guy, is the first project under her production company GDP Entertainment, Inc. Think Like a Guy is a practical and funny handbook of rules compiled by Giuliana. She knows what it's like out there and has done extensive field work on what turns guys off and on. The book was released in 2006.

Prior to coming to E!, Giuliana covered entertainment news online, serving as an anchor at Load Media, as well as an entertainment journalist for Detour magazine's Website. She later transitioned into television as a producer for MGM's nationally syndicated series Uncovered, where she also made her mark as an on-air talent.

Born in Naples, Italy, Giuliana first realized her dreams of becoming a television journalist at age seven, after moving to Washington, D.C., with her family. Unable to afford a tutor, she learned English by watching television before enrolling in the public school system.

After high school, Giuliana attended the University of Maryland, where she received a B.A. in journalism. She earned her master's degree in journalism from American University in Washington, D.C. While in attendance, Giuliana served as a features correspondent for the syndicated university television station, covering a number of stories related to the Pentagon, Supreme Court, White House and State Department.

Upon graduation, Giuliana returned to her true passion—entertainment—and relocated to Los Angeles, where she currently resides with her husband, entrepreneur and talk-show host, Bill Rancic.
