reassurance, helping people

EVP & Head of Scripted Entertainment
Fox Entertainment Studios

produced under Pillemer's watch is
creatively led by female talent and
most of her leadership team at the
Scripted Studio are female executives.
Fearlessly advocating for new or
marginalized voices in the industry,
Pillemer cultivates a positive studio
experience that powerfully supports
the 150+ hours of content her team is
responsible for creating.
A skill I am working on is
speaking last! I tend to jump
to the answer, but I find
that's not the best method
for getting people on board. Fostering
an open dialogue can create a more
collaborative environment and I want
to hear what everyone else thinks. "

Rice's profile is set to gain new

Vice President Kamala Harris'
historic run for President of

a way forward for other women to one
day break through. "
