Love Nature Promotes for Global Content Strategy

Love Nature has promoted Alison Barrat to senior VP, head of content at Love Nature.

In the elevated role, Barrat will lead Love Nature’s global content strategy across original commissioning, acquisitions, programming and marketing to support growing the brand’s global reach with affiliate partners around the world. Barrat is also charged with generating new co-production opportunities with platform partners to further enhance Love Nature’s output of original productions.

Based in Love Nature’s headquarters in Washington, D.C., Barrat will continue to oversee all development and production for Love Nature and will continue reporting to Carlyn Staudt, who was recently promoted into the newly created role of executive VP for global channels and streaming at Blue Ant Media, and now leads the growth of Blue Ant Media’s portfolio of international channels. James Manfull, commissioning editor, and Katie Murdock, executive producer, will continue to report to Barrat.

Staudt commented: “Alison has excelled at elevating the quality, breadth and contemporary appeal of Love Nature’s original programming, leading development and production. Her new role as head of content is a natural progression of the incredible results she’s achieved and sees her taking the helm of the brand’s commissioning as it reaches the next stratosphere of popularity. Her promotion also aligns with a new chapter for Love Nature as it celebrates ten years of incredible growth, unveils a new brand look, and is a driving force within Blue Ant Media’s global channels strategy.”
