Spoke Studios names Pam Healey as new President

Wheelhouse Entertainment company, Spoke Studios recently named former Shed Media and High Noon Entertainment exec Pam Healey as president. Wheelhouse has also brought in Will Nothacker“We’re in a major moment of volatility and huge opportunity in the business, which is why Pam’s range across broadcast, cable, streaming, and producing makes her a great fit for Spoke,” said Wheelhouse founder and CEO Montgomery, Brent Montgomery. 

Based in Los Angeles, Healey will be tasked with leading the creative efforts and growth strategies for the four-year-old production company. Spoke Studios is currently working on four Netflix projects, including reality show "Hype House" and upcoming series "Goldin Auctions," home improvement series More Power for History and several shows for Hulu. “Very much like the early days at Leftfield, we’re focusing on locking great talent and expanding creatively, even when a lot of the industry is bracing and battening down the hatches. This strategy goes to the heart of Wheelhouse and aligns perfectly with Pam.”

The appointment correlates with Notheracker's return. In his new role, he will run in-house production services and the production management arm of Wheelhouse. He will also continue to work closely with Spoke Studios and Healey, as well as working with the other label heads at Wheelhouse on various projects. Spoke’s other former co-president, Joe Weinstock, revealed earlier this week that he had left the company to launch a new joint-venture prodco with UK- and US-based production group Argonon.

Healey spent almost seven years as general manager at Shed Media, which is backed by Warner Bros Television Group, and before that was executive VP at ITV America-owned lifestyle content specialist High Noon. During her tenure at those companies, she developed, sold and oversaw titles including Who Do You Think You Are? for NBC, "100 Humans" for Netflix, "Real Housewives of New York City" for Bravo, "Cake Boss" for TLC, Child Genius for Lifetime, "Criminal Confessions" for Oxygen, "Tough Love" for VH1, "Fast Foodies" for TruTV, "Mexican Dynasties" for Bravo, "Supernanny" for Lifetime and "The Warriors of Liberty City" for Starz.
