In addition to extensively covering the U.S. presidential election in 2008, Mann has covered a multitude of international news events, from the fall of the Berlin Wall and the last days of apartheid in South Africa to the release of Nelson Mandela from prison and the rise of Vladimir Putin as President of Russia.

Before coming to CNN, Mann was a writer for United Press International (UPI) and The Montreal Gazette. He also worked for CBC Radio and NBC Radio. A native of Montreal, Canada, Mann speaks fluent French and the last remnants of broken Hindi, the latter a holdover from his days as a freelance journalist on the Indian subcontinent.
