Nancy Giles was born in New York City, the daughter of Dorothy Aileen (née Dove) and Thomas Jefferson Giles.[2] She is a graduate of Oberlin College.[3]
Giles was a member of the Second City Touring Company in 1984. She is a writer and contributor to CBS News Sunday Morning. She was the announcer and co-host of Fox After Breakfast.[4]
Giles and her CBS colleague, correspondent Erin Moriarty, have collaborated on two public-affairs radio series under the Giles and Moriarty banner, one for WPHT in Philadelphia and another for Greenstone Media. Both shows were produced at the facilities of the CBS Radio Network.
Giles gave the commencement address for the Ramapo College's graduating class of 2007 and Grinnell College's graduating class of 2014.[6]
In 2017 Giles along with CBS News colleague Nancy Wyatt launched the popular podcast The Giles Files.
As of March 2020, Giles lives in Weehawken, New Jersey. During the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, she self-isolated to avoid infection, and produced and starred in "A brisk walk with Nancy Giles", which documented her walk around the town, in particular up the inclined block on which Weehawken High School is located, and up Boulevard East, across from which the view of the Manhattan skyline prompted her to reflect on her parents' emigration to the area 70 years earlier.[7]
