Arce started out in community journalism at a newspaper in upstate New York in the mid-1980s, then reported on police and education for the New York Daily News before joining New York Newsday.[1][2] At Newsday, she was part of the staff that covered the 1991 Union Square derailment; they won the 1992 Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Reporting.[6]

At CNN, where she worked from the late 1990s until roughly 2013, Arce covered the 2010 Haiti earthquake, the war in Afghanistan, and other breaking stories.[1][2] On September 11, 2001, she ran from her Lower Manhattan apartment toward the World Trade Center and reported live on the air for CNN throughout the day; the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences later recognized her as one of the few reporters broadcasting from Ground Zero all day.[3][8] Her account of that day is included in the book Women at Ground Zero (2002).[7] At CNN she also produced documentaries including parts of the Black in America (2008) and Latino in America (2009) series, Her Name Was Steven (2010), and Beyond Bravery: The Women of 9/11 (2011).[3][9]

Since leaving CNN, Arce has worked with Soledad O'Brien at what is now Soledad O'Brien Productions (SO'B Productions).[1] Producing credits include The Perfect Neighbor (2025), which was nominated for Best Documentary Feature at the 98th Academy Awards and won five Critics' Choice Documentary Awards,[10][11] and The Devil Is Busy (HBO, 2024), nominated for Best Documentary Short Film.[12][13]
