Kimberly Bookman is an enterprising TV reporter through and through. She finds untold stories, works them, follows them, updates them and is often attributed for creating change through them.
Kimberly was hired at NBC10 Boston in September of 2026 and is thrilled to be part of the NBC network, which is investing in local news and the many new ways people are consuming it.
She was previously employed at 7News in Boston. In her 12 years there, she won an Emmy for her reporting during the Blizzard of 2015, brought to light the 5th victim of the Boston Marathon attacks, trained countless new colleagues and spearheaded an annual clothing drive that donated thousands of dollars of goods to area nonprofits.
Prior to that, Kimberly worked for WCVB-TV. In that time, she covered the Boston Marathon bombings and was among the first reporters on scene, delivering breaking news of the assassination of MIT Police Officer Sean Collier. Her storytelling continued through the following year, chronicling the tales of survival, strength and a city’s comeback.
Previously, Kimberly worked at WMUR-TV in Manchester, NH, where she covered the 2008 presidential race. She interviewed almost every presidential candidate and was embedded with Iowa caucus winner Mike Huckabee.
She has held similar positions at WFXT-TV and the former NECN in Boston; WMAR-TV in Baltimore; WSPA-TV in Spartanburg, S.C.; and WETM-TV in Elmira, N.Y.
Kimberly received a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism from American University in Washington, D.C.
Kimberly is a Needham native and Needham High School (NHS) graduate. In 2015, she was honored at NHS with the George A. Dennett Distinguished Career Award for her achievements in broadcast.
During her free time, Kimberly gives back to the community through charitable work. In 2014, Dress For Success honored her with a Standing Strong award for empowering women in the workplace.
