Former MTV corporate communications executive Lauren Hurvitz is slated to join AOL on Oct. 13 as head of corporate communications for the Internet portal.
Tricia Primrose Wallace stepped down as communications chief at AOL this summer after more than 10 years there.
The Internet company, which made a splash by acquiring TechCrunch last week, split from $111 billion merger partner of 2000 Time Warner last year.
Hurvitz was executive VP of corporate comms. and public affairs at MTV, which she joined after eight-years at WPP’s Robinson Lerer & Montgomery in 2004.
Wallace was also an RLM alum.
She’s charged with overseeing the web services company’s global communications strategy.
