Alison is an award-winning producer who fell in love with audio stories during long commutes in L.A. Right now she's producing episodes of the forthcoming "Good Citizen" podcast, after spending 2021-22 as Sr. Producer for the "The Purple Principle" & "My Body Odyssey" podcasts, managing everything from booking guests to launching episodes, web content, and audience engagement.
She produced and edited episodes of the weekly interview show "With Good Reason," which airs nationally on public radio. Working closely with Mo Rocca at CBS, Alison produced and edited chart-topping "Mobituaries" podcast episodes about Laura Branigan and Sammy Davis, Jr. And in April 2019, she completed the NEH-grant-funded series, "Voices of Vietnam," with Virginia Humanities. And yet!: She's not just an audio producer... |
Alison was the Archival Researcher for 2-time Emmy-nominated "At the Heart of Gold: Inside the USA Gymnastics Scandal." She co-produced "I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth Vs. Michelle Carter," a 2-part HBO documentary film that premiered at SXSW in March 2019 to critical acclaim. Alison first teamed up with documentary rockstar Erin Lee Carr on her feature directorial debut "Thought Crimes: the Case of the Cannibal Cop" before co-producing the hit film "Mommy Dead and Dearest," all for HBO.
Alison's other accomplishments include credits for films, radio stories, web series, corporate media, and reality TV featured on PBS, Discovery, HGTV, WCAI, Radio Woodstock, and the American history podcast "Backstory." She graduated magna cum laude with an MFA in Integrated Media Arts from Hunter College in 2008. Then, when accepted as a student of the competitive Transom Story Workshop, she wrote, recorded, and edited a personal audio essay, "Leaving Los Angeles" and won the 2015 Miller Audio Prize from The Missouri Review.
In her spare time (?!?), Alison is writing a dramedy pilot called "Zen and Jen," and strategizing about bringing NJ Public Radio back to New Jersey. She lived in both NYC and L.A., spent one year as Drew Barrymore's personal assistant, and one month walking across Northern Spain, but currently sits at a desk in her Jersey Shore home.
