Wasserman has hired Zoe Rogovin to lead the company’s newly launched non-fiction division.
In her new role, Rogovin and the division will develop and produce premium, commercial TV, and documentary films. They will work with a wide range of directors, talent, and production companies as well as Wasserman’s own entertainment, sports, and music businesses.
She will report to Jon Liebman, CEO of Brillstein Entertainment Partners, who runs all content and entertainment for Wasserman. Brillstein was acquired by Wasserman in September 2023.
“The launch of our Non-Fiction division is another milestone in our mission to open up new creative opportunities for talent,” Liebman said. “Zoe is dynamic and immensely qualified. With the resources and momentum of the Wasserman and Brillstein teams behind her, we know we will have the platform to generate great work.”
The division already has multiple projects in its pipeline, including the previously announced Brittney Griner documentary with ESPN and more.
Rogovin previously worked at both Brillstein and Wasserman earlier in her career — as an intern at Brillstein and in global media rights and business development at Wasserman.
Most recently, she was Showtime’s senior vice president of programming, where she oversaw development and production of the premium cabler’s non-fiction features and series. Her work there included “Need to Talk about Cosby,” “UFO,” “Supervillain,” and “Supreme Team” as well as returning shows like “Ziwe” and “Vice.” Before Showtime, Rogovin was vice president of development at Bravo, where she developed series such as “The Real Housewives of Dallas,” “Family Karma,” “Backyard Envy,” and “The Singles Project.”
