ITV America has promoted New York-based Jordana Hochman to executive VP and head of programming."To have Jordana now heading programming across both coasts bodes well for the future of ITV America and our partners," ITV America CEO David George, said.

Based in New York, Hochman now oversees the top programming position at the factual-focused production group, which produces international titles, such as "Queer Eye," "Love Island," "Hell’s Kitchen," "Alone" and "The Chase." She previously led east coast programming, but will now oversee production on both the east and west coasts of the US.

Hochman joined ITV America in 2013 as VP of programming at Leftfield Pictures before moving into broader roles at parent company ITV America. Prior to joining Leftfield Pictures she was VP of current series at Oxygen Network and before that worked in the non-fiction department at A&E. “Her sense of what buyers need to break through in a tough marketplace, plus years of hands-on production expertise, have been secret weapons for us for nearly a decade," George said.

In addition to Netflix’s Queer Eye, Hochman has also worked on Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New Jersey, A&E’s "The First 48," OWN’s recent "Marry Me Now," Disney+’s Becoming and A&E’s upcoming doc "Exposing Parchman." Six production labels sit under the ITV America banner: ITV Entertainment, Sirens Media, Thinkfactory Media, High Noon Entertainment, Good Caper Content and Leftfield Pictures. “Jordana has played a key role in ITV America’s success, elevating our content through stellar work on shows like Queer Eye and so many others,” George said.
