Nick Caloway is a multi-skilled journalist who was thrilled to join the CBS News New York news team in August 2019.

Nick started his television career at KTBS in his hometown of Shreveport, Louisiana, covering a wide array of stories, from city government to devastating tornadoes and hurricanes.

Nick lives in North Jersey with his wife, two kids, and a golden retriever named Buddy. He enjoys cooking, running, golf, paddleball, cheering on the LSU Tigers and playing with his kids, not necessarily in that order.
