About Amy Coleman
As a Supervising Producer of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Amy Coleman helped lead the team that produced the most successful show in the history of daytime television. Amy created hundreds of hours of innovative and groundbreaking television – many of which have been woven into the very fabric of our popular culture. For seventeen seasons, Amy produced moments that people will be remembering for years to come. She introduced America to incredible people who changed the way viewers look at the world. She produced conversations that changed the course of history. What does it take to pull off some of the most memorable moments on the Oprah Show? It takes an abundance of passion and drive, wild creativity, boundless energy, positivity and enthusiasm. It takes a great team of great producers – and a leader that can help each person on that team tap into the best of themselves. It takes someone who doesn’t just show up to work every day. But, someone who loves what they do so much, they consider their work a calling, a mission, a true passion. That\'s what Amy brings to the table as a leader and as a television producer. She is a creative, problem-solving, motivated producer and a motivating, respected, effective leader. Amy grew into an even stronger leader when she became Executive Producer and Showrunner of The Jeff Probst Show, where she built the show from the ground up. She hand-picked a team of smart, hungry, driven people who felt supported and encouraged to brainstorm, think outside of the box and grow. Her strong partnership with Jeff Probst helped foster an environment where people felt inspired and empowered to do their best and work their hardest - fearlessly.
