Vivien Creegor

A Highly Respected Journalist

A highly respected journalist, Vivien has worked for many years with the United Nations, often as a Goodwill Ambassador and is the only British Woman to be continually used to chair UN Conferences. These conferences often include large audiences, live satellite links and interviews via interpreters.  She came to the attention of the world’s press when she was honoured to chair a series of Women’s Health Conferences for The World Health Organisation in Geneva and Beijing. In Beijing Vivien chaired over 5,000 delegates including Hillary Clinton, Benazir Bhutto, Jane Fonda and Baroness Shirley Williams.

She has written many amusing and informative articles for publications such as The Evening Standard and is a regular travel reporter for The Mail on Sunday, specialising in wildlife and conservation type adventure holidays.

Apart from current affairs, Vivien presented a live transport and travel series on BBC TV called ‘Transit’ with Mike Smith. She also presented a 20 part series ‘The Small Business Programme’ for BBC TV. Vivien is famous for her wonderful voice and so it’s no surprise that she has been a favourite voice-over artist for numerous programmes and commercials, including Discovery Channel’s ‘Those Who Dare’ and ‘Mysterious Forces Beyond’. She recently filmed a moving documentary on her trip to Cambodia for the UN, reporting on the rehabilitation of the sex slaves, landmine victims and orphans there.

Despite the often serious subjects that Vivien has to deal with, she retains a great sense of humour and natural wit, something that she was able to show when she was asked to compere for Victoria Wood live at The Lyric Theatre and in her dealings as a friend of The British Academy of Film and Television Arts and on the board of The National Film School.
 
For several years she presented the Millennium Child of Achievement Forum where the delegates included guests like John Major, Mo Mowlam and David Trimble.

“Having a non company anchor was a great idea. Vivien was a very positive influence and added a degree of professionalism and polish to the proceedings".
