The search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show anchor Savannah Guthrie, has intensified in Arizona’s Catalina Foothills, drawing nationwide attention. Nancy, who was last seen on January 31, 2026, is missing from her home near Tucson, prompting a massive response from law enforcement and local volunteers. The challenging desert terrain, coupled with Nancy’s age and health, has made the search more complex, with specialized teams using drones, K-9 units, and mountain rescue units to comb the area.
Savannah, absent from the Today show as she supports the search, has expressed deep gratitude for the outpouring of support. In a statement, she thanked the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and volunteers for their relentless efforts. The family has requested privacy as the investigation continues, focusing on the search for any leads. Despite the emotional toll, the community’s support and the efforts of authorities remain strong.
The case has garnered significant attention on social media, with the hashtag #FindNancy trending. As the search enters a critical phase, law enforcement urges anyone with information to come forward. The hope for a safe reunion remains, and the nation watches, hoping for Nancy’s safe return.
