Sharon was quite popular while attending high school, mostly because of her attractive looks. She dreamt about becoming a famous model or an actress, but still decided to pursue a career in medicine, which is why she enrolled at James Madison University in Virginia upon matriculating in 1988. Sharon went on to obtain her Bachelor’s degree in 1992, while she then her Master’s degree as well.
Sharon has been keeping the details of her career hidden from the media’s attention, but it’s known that she has worked at various hospitals in Maryland, and that she obtained her medical license on 14 September 2015.

Abilio James ‘Jim’ Acosta was born in Washington, D. C., USA, on 17 April 1971 – his zodiac sign is Aries and he holds American nationality. He is perhaps known best for the work he has done as the chief White House correspondent for the pay TV channel CNN.
Jim was raised in Washington, D. C. by his father, who came to the US from Cuba when he was 11, and his mother who is of Czech and Irish descent. Jim attended Annandale High School, from which he matriculated in 1989, and then enrolled at James Madison University, graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in mass communication in 1993.
Jim launched his career while still attending college, as he worked at the radio station WXJM before moving to WSVA, a radio station in Harrisonburg, Virginia. His first notable job was for the WMAL sports radio station in Washington, D. C., then in 1994, Jim moved to TV and joined WTTG-TV, before transferring to WBIR-TV the following year. In 1998, he moved to Dallas to work at KTVT-TV, and held the job for two years before going to Chicago to work at WBBM-TV, where he stayed for a year. He spent the following two years working for the CBS Newspath as a correspondent, and in February 2003 was invited to join CBS News as a correspondent.
Jim subsequently covered various important events such as the 2004 presidential campaign of the American politician John Kerry, reporting from Baghdad during the Iraq War, and also on Hurricane Katrina.
He started working for CNN in April 2007, and the following year saw him cover the presidential campaigns of both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Jim became CNN’s national political correspondent in February 2012 – in 2015, he asked Obama why couldn’t they simply destroy ISIS, a militant Islamist group.
In March 2016, Jim travelled to Cuba when Obama went there to talk with the Cuban President Raul Castro. On 9 January 2018, Jim became CNN’s chief White House correspondent.
Jim might be known best for what happened when he attended Donald Trump’s press conferences. In May 2016, Trump called Jim ‘a real beauty”, then on 11 January 2017, Trump claimed that CNN was fake news. On 7 November 2018 during a press conference, Jim allegedly brushed the arm of a White House intern, and this got his security credentials suspended, making it impossible for him to enter the White House. CNN and Jim sued Donald Trump and several other people from the White House, and Jim eventually received his credentials back for two weeks. After his credentials were restored with conditions on 19 November, both CNN and Jim dropped the charges.
Jim is also a writer, having released his book “The Enemy of the People: A Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America” in 2019.
