In this episode of The People of Penn State, Katie sits down with Arianna Davis (’09 Com), the Digital Editorial Director at TODAY.
Arianna leads the TODAY Show's digital strategy and frequently appears on air to highlight the top stories making waves online. She’s also the author of What Would Frida Do? A Guide to Living Boldly, a vibrant tribute to the life and legacy of artist Frida Kahlo.
In this conversation, Arianna reflects on her time at Penn State and how it helped shape her path, shares insights into her impressive career in media, discusses her journey as an author, and much more. (Bravo fans—don’t miss her take on the best Real Housewives franchise!)
Now based in New York City, Arianna is busy working on her next novel, planning her 2026 wedding with her fiancé, and watching The Real Housewives with her dog, Leo.
