Hot Ho of the day
Justine Shapiro




Justine Shapiro (born March 20, 1963 in South Africa) is one of several main hosts of the Pilot Productions travel/adventure series Globe Trekker (also called Pilot Guides in Canada and the United States and originally broadcast as Lonely Planet). Shapiro is known for her honest commentary and critique of countries visited. She has hosted more than 30 episodes of Globe Trekker, including features on South Africa, Belize, Turkey, Mexico City, South India and China. Before hosting pilot guides, Shapiro appeared in various roles in film and television. Eventually, she was involved in several documentaries including co-production/direction duties on 2001's Promises, which was nominated for best Documentary Feature at the 74th Academy Awards. Promises was a cooperative project between B.Z. Goldberg, Shapiro and Carlos Bolado Munoz, Mexican filmmaker, then her husband. Shapiro currently resides in Berkeley, California with her young son.

During an October 2006 broadcast of the Globe Trekker Venice City Guide episode, Shapiro revealed that she went to Tufts University with Oliver Platt, who recognized her in the crowd, while she was covering the Venice Film Festival, where Platt was promoting Casanova.(Pictures via Globe Trekker T.V.)
