About Rachel Witlieb Bernstein

I love to make others shine, help brands grow and produce engaging and entertaining content. For my entire career, I have enjoyed working as a television and digital content producer, talent scout and booker in a variety of formats including late-night comedy, interview programs and opinion and hard news. I love the thrill of a fast-paced, tight-deadline environment where I make things happen - especially for live television shows. I\'m most proud of my success as a producer with Conan where I delivered the entire production lifecycle from segment conception, curation and talent management to script writing and content edits for any format, on any platform. I am recognized as a seasoned producer, trusted advisor, booker and onsite producer of high-profile celebrities, athletes, influencers, authors, politicians, comedians, chefs, executives, animal experts and unique hard-to-find human interest guests. I know what is funny, what \"sells\" and am good at both finding and developing talent to sync with the host and connect effectively to the target audience. I love setting up any show, host, brand or talent for success. Making others look good is what I do really well - through research, vetting, editorial sensibility and timely execution for both linear and digital content. I excel in overseeing the entire production crew, the technical edits, and working cross-functionally with the team, ensuring every detail is managed and produced with excellence, within a tight deadline, on budget and with professionalism, creativity and a sense of humor. While most of my career has been in television, my skills are transferable to any brand, project, person or event that needs to be produced, marketed and managed. Career Highlights: Two-time Emmy-nominated for Outstanding Variety Show Production. Produced interviews between Conan O’Brien and A-list talent including Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Produced Conan\'s live, moderated conversation with Michelle Obama for 2019 Book Tour. Created large scale physical stunt comedy segments, resulting in ratings boost for Conan show.
