Emmy Award-winning reporter and Bay Area native Juliette Goodrich joined KPIX 5 in 1997 and has held various anchoring and reporting assignments during her time with the station. In addition to her work at KPIX, Goodrich anchors the national news for CBS News 24/7 every day at 4 p.m. ET, delivering key headlines and breaking stories to a nationwide audience. She also anchors "6 and 7 p.m. with Juliette Goodrich" weekdays on KPIX 5, combining in-depth reporting with trusted storytelling.
Goodrich graduated from UC Davis with a degree in communications and was awarded the Kelly Broadcasting Scholarship in her senior year. She began her broadcasting career in the early 1990s, reporting for Channel 30 in her hometown of Pleasanton, and later gained local and national experience as a reporter and anchor in the Redding, Chico, and Sacramento television markets.
Throughout her career, Goodrich has covered a wide range of significant local and national stories. She has been honored with 10 Emmy Awards, including recognition for Best Anchor, Best Newscast, Best Daytime Newscast, and Best Political Coverage. She received the APTRA "Excellence in Spot News Coverage" award for her anchor desk reporting during the Oakland Super Bowl riots. The following year, she was named Reporter of the Year by The Women of Radio and Television Association. In 2012, she was awarded a NorCal RTNDA award for her multi-part series "Hunger Challenge: Living on a Food Stamp Budget for a Week."
Goodrich was inspired to write her first children's book after emceeing the 100th birthday celebration of the Centennial Light - the world's longest-burning light bulb, located at Fire Station 6 in Livermore, California. Her book, "The Little Light Shines Bright," benefits local reading and writing programs. She has since authored four additional children's books, including "The Train of Lights," "I'm Special Because I Smile" (inspired by her work with Special Olympics), and "Paws Goes to the Library," with proceeds supporting literacy programs.
She is actively involved in several community organizations, including the Northern California Special Olympics, American Red Cross, and Salvation Army. Goodrich has also participated in triathlons supporting the See Jane Run Breast Cancer Fund.
Goodrich lives in the East Bay with her husband and their three children. After years of training in taekwondo, she and her children have earned their black belts and are now pursuing their second-degree belts. She also has a mini farm at home with her horse, two dogs, and a tortoise to add to her already full life.
