Soledad has always been an engaging reporter, filled with energy, a sense of humor and a pleasant level of charm. All siblings graduates of Harvard? One hell of a tribute to mom and dad!

First time I saw Soledad on television I thought her parents, named her after the Soledad brothers and Jonathon Jackson's attempt to free his brother George. Apparently she has been pursued about the possible connection of her namesakes, but Soledad was born in 1966 and George and Jonathan Jackson did not make headlines until the 70's.
