Today I produced an interview with US Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner for CNBC. He stopped in Anchorage on his way to the G-20 Summit in South Korea.

When I did the location scout, I sent a pic of the Chugach mountain range under a bright blue sky...well, that was yesterday and today it rained! But we set up a tent and as you can see, the satellite truck operator and I stood as a human shield with umbrellas to block him from the wind, which worked great!

He was answering questions live on air for a show called "Closing Bell." I found it interesting that his people said he'd never done an interview via satellite with a reporter in studio. Luckily, it turned out perfectly! He spoke of going fishing in Alaska quickly before heading of to South Korea, but I think he was joking.

The bottom pic is us with the satellite truck operator and the makeup artist.

Well done! Oh, the glamour of showbiz...all those years of experience in order to become a human wind shield.
