Amy DeGregorio promoted to sales chief at Hearst Media Production Group
Amy DeGregorio has been promoted to executive vice president, sales and revenue at Hearst Media Production Group (HMPG). The role is newly created. The Hollywood Reporter, which broke the news, said it had learned of the elevation in a report published on 15 October 2026.
She is now Bryan Curb's number two. Curb is president of HMPG, the production and distribution organisation behind a large slate of syndicated factual and lifestyle programming. He took the top job when Frank Biancuzzo retired in March, according to the same report.
In the new post, DeGregorio will drive revenue strategy and oversee sales and sponsorship activity across the group's full portfolio. That covers linear television, meaning traditional scheduled channels, alongside branded and digital-native content, FAST channels and emerging platforms. FAST channels are free streaming channels that carry advertising.
DeGregorio has been senior vice president at HMPG since 2022. In that role she led the sales marketing team and new business-development initiatives. Her earlier title was senior vice president, managing director of sales for educational and informational programming, known in the trade as E/I, meaning shows that meet US requirements for children's educational content.
She joined the organisation in 2016 as senior director, integrated marketing. At that time it was still called Litton Entertainment. Litton was rebranded as Hearst Media Production Group in 2022. Before Litton, DeGregorio was director, strategic and integrated marketing at CBS Television Stations.
She holds a bachelor's degree in media studies from New York University, where she graduated magna cum laude.
HMPG's current slate includes 30 original series. Its library totals 6,000 episodes across 85 series, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The catalogue spans wildlife, travel, lifestyle and E/I titles sold to broadcast stations and platforms in the United States and internationally.
