Carrig will report to Meredith Wagner, Lifetime Networks’ executive vice president of advocacy, public affairs and corporate communications. Crumley will report to Carrig.
“Very few individuals in the public affairs arena can claim the breadth of experience and long-standing relationships in Washington and Hollywood that both Danielle and Amanda bring to the Company," said Wagner in a statement.
Lifetime has an extensive and long-term public advocacy apparatus that has included campaigns to raise awareness about breast cancer, end domestic violence and encourage women to seek political office.
