Curry lands octuplet mom interview

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Nadya Suleman, the California woman who gave birth to octuplets last week, has selected NBC News anchor Ann Curry to tell her story.

The news was announced Thursday by the Killeen Furtney Group, the Los Angeles marketing and public relations firm representing Suleman.

Suleman, who reportedly is unmarried and unemployed, became the center of a medical ethics firestorm when it became known she had six children ages 2 to 7 before she gave birth to the octuplets, which were conceived by in vitro fertilization.

NBC said Thursday Curry's exclusive interview with Suleman will air on "Today" and "Dateline" in the coming days.
