ABOUT ANASTASIYA BOLTON

I’ve told stories from Siberia, Moscow Russia, Amarillo, TX, Birmingham, AL, Denver, CO, Houston and along the Texas-Mexico border.

I’ve covered the Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

I’ve reported on hurricanes, including Katrina.

I’ve covered high profile disappearance cases, like Natalee Holloway.

I’ve shared the voices of communities impacted by mass shootings, including the Aurora, CO movie theater, the Sutherland Springs, TX church tragedy and the Santa Fe, TX school shooting.

Most recently, I covered the crisis at the Texas-Mexico border.

I’ve been to my share of school board and city council meetings, covered end-of watch stories, stood outside to tell everyone it was snowing or flooding, showed viewers "life-changing" video of a chicken flying competition, where the birds were shot out of a cannon to see which would fly the furthest.

Anastasiya bolton biography of mahatma Anastasiya Bolton has spent 22 years telling complex, often emotional stories on television and every other medium, working all over the U.S. and internationally. Her work has been recognized nationally and regionally, including with several Emmy awards.

No chickens were harmed.

So, I've had fun days, hard days, bad days, days I wish I weren't knocking on someone's door, but I also really loved the work. I still feel grateful to all the people who trusted me with their stories, meeting them was a true gift. 

In I started ViKSTORY Media LLC. I named my company after my grandfather Viktor, a life-long journalist in the former Soviet Union, where I was born.

I had an upbringing rich with experiences and my own stories. 

I grew up partially in Africa at a Soviet Embassy, partially in Moscow.

Together with my grandpa Viktor, we watched Mikhail Gorbachev talk about “perestroika.” (I later got to interview Gorbachev for my university newspaper. Talk about INCREDIBLE.)

I lived through two coups.

Yes, before you ask, I stood in lines for bread. 

I came to the U.S. at Lucky.

While in college in Dallas, I finally figured out how to properly channel my never-ending curiosity, talking to strangers everywhere I go (no joke, my husband is tired of it) and asking questions that are not always welcome. I became a journalist.

I already mentioned my Emmys.

What I must also point out - I didn’t win them alone. Journalism is a team sport and I’ve had the best partners! 

It’s time to grow that list.

So what should we work on today?
