Stuart Levine, managing editor of television and features for Variety, is moving to a new slot at NBC Entertainment covering publicity and PR for the NBC TV network.
The network said Levine, starting in March, will head “editorial,” which includes developing press materials, leading media relations efforts, and handling ratings publicity.
Richard Licata, who heads communications for NBCE as executive VP, said Levine has reported on “every aspect of our business,” adding that the network likes the combination of that experience with his editorial and writing ability to "build the Peacock brand."
Levine, a 15-year Variety hand, guided features like its Oscar and Emmy coverage, as well as annual special reports like “10 Actors to Watch Report” and “Showrunners Impact Report.”
At NBCE, he will report to EVP/publicity Rebecca Marks and senior VP/corporate PR Nate Kirtman. |
