    NEW YORK, NY, September 25, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ — Katherine O’Malley Randall has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who’s Who. As in all Marquis Who’s Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected based on current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Katherine has established herself as a prominent figure in the creative and production sectors, currently holding the position of Senior Vice President of Creative Strategy and Production Operations at The Players’ Tribune. With almost 15 years of professional experience, she has spent the last seven years successfully developing a global, branded video team. She oversees multiple departments, including post-production, where in-house editors bring filmed content to life. Her leadership extends to a team comprising creative strategists, producers and production operations staff who handle logistics, finances, legal matters and crew coordination. Additionally, she actively produces content and regularly directs and interviews athletes.

Katherine’s career journey is marked by significant roles at The Players’ Tribune, Billboard and SPIN. Prior to joining The Players’ Tribune, she served as Director of Brand Programming at Billboard in 2017, having been brought on with the acquisition of select sites, SPIN, VIBE and Stereogum from SpinMedia Inc. Her early career included positions such as research assistant at The New School from 2010 to 2011 and social research assistant at MTV Insight Innovation at Viacom in 2010, followed by department intern at VH1 Music and Talent at Viacom in 2011. Upon graduation her first full time role was as receptionist and office manager at SpinMedia Inc. where she ultimately followed her passion through until the Billboard acquisition six years later. Her fascination with music and community led to arranging events with brands for festivals which provided her with firsthand insight into the power of fandom and collective passion. She has carried this understanding into the sports industry and aims to humanize the individuals on stage and in the field.

Katherine’s educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in social psychology with honors from Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School. She has also earned several certifications, including Wharton Business Foundations Specialization from Wharton Online in 2021 and The Science of Well-Being from Yale University in 2021. She attributes her success to the unwavering support and guidance of her parents, who instilled in her the confidence and leadership skills necessary for her career.

In addition to her professional achievements, Katherine is actively involved in various civic-minded organizations. She has served as a moderator for ThinkLA in 2024 and Soccerex in 2023 and is a member of the International DE&I Board as well as Co-Chair of the Women and Allies ERG at Minute Media. Her accolades include being a Clio Sports Awards juror for The Clio Awards in 2022 and receiving numerous shortlist recognitions from Hashtag Sports, Digiday Media Awards Europe and Cynopsis Digital Awards. She has also served as a research panelist for Digiday since 2021.

Looking ahead, she is focused on expanding her global team and seizing new opportunities for growth beyond their current boundaries. While her team currently focuses on social, web and mobile platforms, Mrs. Randall believes that many stories deserve longer formats. She aims to explore the streaming space with the ultimate goal of changing the narrative around women’s sports, redefining success so that women’s achievements are seen as part of their capabilities rather than exceptional accomplishments.
