In 2010, Malone moved to Los Angeles to work in American television. She was hired by her native Australian ''Today'' show as a press junket journalist, whereby she held media interviews with numerous celebrities. Meanwhile, she hosted several podcasts and wrote two non-fiction books, exploring the involvement of women in film. In 2016, she was hired as a host for the now-defunct streaming service FilmStruck, which led to her hiring as a full-time host for Turner Classic Movies. Provided by Wikipedia
