Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on October 28, 1975)

Happy Birthday, Anna Coren! From chasing breaking news across Australia with Nine Network to becoming CNN's fearless correspondent in Hong Kong, you've always been the journalist who makes deadlines look easy and jet lag glamorous. Your ability to report calmly amidst chaos is legendary—rumor has it even typhoons pause politely when you're on air.

Here's wishing you another year filled with exciting scoops, fewer sleepless nights covering global events, and plenty of coffee breaks between live broadcasts. May your birthday be headline-worthy and your celebrations as memorable as your impressive career. Cheers to you, Anna—the reporter who truly puts the "correspondent" in extraordinary!
