KUSA - Kim Day has run Denver International Airport since 2008, longer than anyone else.

Day was hired by Denver's then-Mayor John Hickenlooper. Before that, she was the executive director at Los Angeles World Airports from 2003 to 2005, a system that includes Los Angeles International as well as the Ontario, Van Nuys and Palmdale airports.

The Denver Business Journal sat down with Day in her office at the Denver City & County Building. The airport CEO talked about DIA's history, its operations today and its challenges in the future.

We talked to Day in January, days after the airport finished a record-breaking year - 53,472,514 people passed through DIA during 2014, higher than the previous record of 53.2 million people set in 2012.
