Dan Burritt is the host and producer of CBC VANCOUVER NEWS AT 11 P.M., where he is dedicated to bringing viewers the top news of the day, as well as in-depth stories and issues from the community through all media platforms.

Previously the host of CBC Vancouver News Saturdays and CBC Vancouver News Sundays, Burritt is a trusted member of the news team. He has hosted CBC Vancouver News at 6 and CBC Vancouver News at 11.

Burritt has reported on a wide range of breaking and in-depth news stories in the region, including the shooting death of Abbotsford Police Constable John Davidson, the ongoing weather and climate events in British Columbia, and the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. He has an extensive background in election coverage, covering municipal, provincial and federal elections since 2008. He counts the 2013 British Columbia provincial election as a career highlight, and travelled across the province to provide special coverage.

Prior to joining CBC in 2012, Burritt spent six and a half years as a radio reporter and host. His last post in radio was as a lead political reporter, driving special coverage of the B.C. Liberal and NDP leadership campaigns for news radio networks. He was awarded the "Broadcast Performer of Tomorrow" award by the BCAB (British Columbia Association of Broadcasters) in 2010 and received a Jack Webster Award nomination for his Chuck Davis Tribute.

Burritt always had an interest in journalism growing up. He spent considerable time writing, reporting, and hosting at the University of British Columbia student newspaper and radio station before deciding to pursue his career of choice further by enrolling at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT). He likes to say, radio is the theatre of the mind, TV compels with moving pictures, and the web/online is where words live.

Born and raised on the Lower Mainland, Burritt counts running alongside the 2010 Olympic torch, zip-lining across downtown Vancouver and interviewing animals among his favourite reporting memories.

One of his hidden talents? He makes a mean stir-fry.
