NBC Nightly News Anchor and Managing Editor Tom Llamas sits down with Houston Life co-host Derrick Shore to chat about his upbringing, how his immigrant parents shaped his life, and his approach to bringing news and information to viewers in a rapidly changing world. This is the extended version of Derrick and Tom's conversation during his recent visit to Houston. As part of his "Reporting for America" tour, Llamas anchored 'Nightly News' from several cities in the U.S., including right here in Houston.

Tom Llamas will succeed Lester Holt as NBC “Nightly News” anchor this summer, but he'll be working double duty.

NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt is starting the week in Houston as part of the network’s week-long special coverage on the state of the climate crisis. The network-wide series “Climate Challenge” will include exclusive reporting on TODAY, NBC Nightly News, Meet the Press, and NBCNews.com.
