Lauren Corrao has been named executive VP of original programming and development at Freeform.<\/p>\n

Corrao most recently served as co-president of Michael Eisner’s Tornante TV. Prior to her time at Tornante TV, Corrao spent eight years at Comedy Central rising to the role of president of original programming and development.<\/p>\n

In her new post, Corrao will accelerate and amplify the content and inclusive stories aimed at young adults that Freeform has become known for. She will oversee all scripted and unscripted development and current original programming, in addition to casting and talent development.<\/p>\n

Network president Tom Ascheim, to whom she will report, said, \u201cLauren\u2019s wealth of experience coupled with her incredible creative instinct, as well as close working relationships with many talented writers and producers, will be invaluable to Freeform. In collaboration with the programming team, she will undoubtedly grow our slate of successful series and continue to build an environment for the talent community to tell powerful stories that become a lasting part of the cultural zeitgeist.\u201d<\/p>\n

Corrao added, \u201cI am honored to be joining Freeform and continuing to elevate the tremendous work that Tom, Karey and the team have done to make it a destination that truly connects with its audience. I\u2019m incredibly inspired by the energy, inclusivity and diverse voices that populate this network and cannot wait to get started.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
