In 2006, Cuomo showed a more mature side as news anchor of ABC's Good Morning America, where he took on investigative projects and premiered a feature called "Cuomo's AmeriCANs," which put the spotlight on Americans making a difference in their local communities. In 2009, Cuomo was promoted to a more prominent role on 20/20, co-hosting alongside Elizabeth Vargas.

Cuomo married Cristina Greeven, a magazine editor, in 2001. The couple has three children: daughters Bella and Carolina, and son Mario. Despite his family's initial misgivings, it is clear that Chris Cuomo has found a way to carry on the family tradition of service from a media platform. "He has an authentic passion for helping people," said Diane Sawyer, his co-worker at Good Morning America. "There are a lot of people who want to be on television. But Chris lives for the kind of work that makes a difference."
