Diverse Bristol Expands Production Team With New Hire

Diverse Bristol, part of the Zodiak group of companies, have announced the appointment of Katie Brosnan as Executive Producer, to spearhead the company's development of factual entertainment and features.
Brosnan is a former Commissioning Editor of Factual Entertainment at E4, UK and was a member of the original commissioning team for 'Big Brother'. More recently she has been based in Dublin at independent production company Liberty Films, where she developed and produced hit shows for RTE Television including the Prix Jeunesse nominee 'No Experience Required' and 'Twenty Moments That Shook Irish Sport', which were both nominated for Irish Film & Television Awards, with the latter breaking ratings record for the channel.
Rob MacIver, Creative Director at Diverse Bristol, commented: "Katie is a brilliant executive with a keen eye for the popular and entertaining, brining with her a wealth of experience in producing programming that offers great appeal to today's audiences. Katie is a real catch for Diverse Bristol and we look forward to welcoming her to our team as we develop a range of new projects."
Diverse Bristol, the UK regional arm for Diverse, one of the most recognisable and trusted brands in independent factual television, has recently enjoyed hits with 'Tribal Wives', 'Born Survivor', 'Beyond Boundaries' and 'Mission Everest' and is currently in production with 'The Incense Trail' for BBC2, UK. Recently voted one of the Top Ten Regional Indies by Realscreen Magazine, the company continues to grow and evolve with an array of new and returning commissions.
