At some point, Cat Grant became a journalist and was hired by the Daily Planet as a gossip columnist. She was then nicknamed "CJ Grant" by editor-in-chief, Perry White.[1]
Grant was married once to an unnamed man.[1]
Luckiest Town in America?[edit | hide]
On May 25, 2009, Grant went to Midvale after it was nicknamed the luckiest town in America. She then went to a diner and ordered a cup of milkshake.[2]
On the next day, Grant went to Midvale College and interviewed a "professor" on the accident taking place in the building. The "professor" denied all claims that there was someone protecting the small town and Grant left the college. Later, she witnessed a speeding fuel truck as she struggles to find her current whereabouts. However, she was able to glimpse that there was a blue light emitting on the truck. She then photographed it and followed the truck in her car. As she arrived on the scene, there was nobody on the truck.[2]
Determined to reveal the secrets behind the town, Grant went to an open bar and drank several drinks before being mistaken as Lois Lane. The bartender talked to her about her photographs and reminded her to clean the lenses, allowing her to discover a suspicious shadow looming over the fuel truck. She then walked to a child and offered to buy his drone.[2] She then went to the woods and recorded the capture of two aliens.[1]
