He is a former weekend anchor and correspondent for both NBC and MSNBC.
He is the son of the late newspaper journalist John Lawrence Seigenthaler, and named for his father.
He is best known for his eight-year tenure as weekend anchor of NBC Nightly News.
Seigenthaler is a graduate of Father Ryan High School and Duke University, where he received a bachelor of science degree in public policy in 1978.
Seigenthaler began his television news career in 1980 as a writer and producer at WNGE-TV (now WKRN-TV) in Nashville, Tennessee.
From 1981-90, he reported and produced for WSMV-TV, Nashville and also hosted a weekday public affairs show.
From there he moved to KOMO-TV in Seattle, where he anchored the weekend evening news.
In January 1992, he married KOMO weeknight anchor Kerry Brock, who later joined him at the weekend anchor desk at KOMO.
Then he moved back to Nashville, where he co-anchored the evening news for WKRN-TV.
