Paula Woodward started her reporting career with KDEN All-News radio before joining the number one news station in Denver, KUSA TV in 1977. Woodward continually scooped her colleagues and competing reporters at other stations with exclusive high-profile interviews, hidden camera stings and powerful storytelling.

Woodward has been honored with some 50 investigative reporting accolades, including multiple Emmy, Edward R. Murrow and Society of Professional Journalism awards.

Woodward’s reputation grew with the murder of JonBenét Ramsey in 1996. Woodward refused to report spoon-fed facts at press conferences unless she’d double-sourced them. She landed exclusive interviews with members of the Ramsey family because she fairly reported their side of the story, after prosecutors and law enforcement told theirs. She resigned from local television news to write her first book on the Ramsey case.

Since her departure from television news, Woodward has authored two publications surrounding the murder of JonBenét Ramsey. We Have Your Daughter: The Unsolved Murder of JonBenét Ramsey, Twenty Years Later was released in 2016; and Unsolved: The JonBenét Ramsey Murder 25 Years Later, was released in 2021.
