During a recent appearance on The Tamron Hall Show, Roberts, 64, opened up about how covering Hurricane Katrina in 2005 helped teach her how to be herself on the air, no matter what.
"I had just been named a third anchor with theDiane Sawyer and theCharlie Gibson, and you know as a young journalist you're thinking, 'Am I worthy? Why am I here?'" she recalled.
"So I get down there, and there was no way I was going on air until I knew my mama was okay," Roberts continued. "I found her just moments before we were to go live, and she was the one who encouraged me to go out there...I wanted to stay with my mama in the house, which was a little damaged."
"And it was Charlie who said, 'When you left here, you didn't know the condition of your family. Did you find them?'"
"I mean, ugly crying," she said. "I knew a lot of people were tuning in that morning, not knowing the whereabouts of their loved ones, and I had felt that."
"But what it taught me though, Tamron, is be yourself, just show up and be you," Roberts went on to say.
