Up for Emmy consideration multiple times by NBC for her interviews with everyone from singers to actors to filmmakers and politicians, she has amassed a body of work, too large to mention in short form. Cynthia has been the face & personality for daytime talk-shows like SONY Studios popular women’s daytime panel LIFE & STYLE, primetime series such as the CW Network’s CROWNED, HBO’s THE BUZZ featuring Cynthia Garrett, TV GUIDE Channel’s HOLLYWOOD INSIDER, as well as major red carpet events like the OSCARS for ABC Network. While hosting later and under contract to NBC, Cynthia also enjoyed much success sitting in with Regis Philbin on LIVE.

Finding God's POV in the Word saved Cynthia’s life in a prison cell in Italy where an abusive and deceptive first marriage turned into the grace that saved her and gave her, her son, Christian. Her personal story, as told in PRODIGAL DAUGHTER: A JOURNEY HOME TO IDENTITY, is one of childhood sexual abuse, rape, and addiction.
