Frons joins ABC
By John Eggerton -- Broadcasting & Cable, 8/2/2002 4:00:00 AM
ABC has tapped Brian Scott Frons as its new president of ABC Daytime, effective Aug. 26.
ABC TV president Alex Wallau called Frons the "ideal candidate," given his experience.
Frons replaces Angela Shapiro, who took over the reins of co-owned ABC Family earlier this year.
He comes to ABC from SBS Broadcasting in London, where he was senior vice president of programming for its 12 European channels.
Before that, he had creative-affairs senior-executive posts at New World Productions and NBC Productions.
ABC's daytime lineup -- which has topped the women-18-through-49 demo for more than a quarter century, according to the network -- includes talker The View and soaps Port Charles, All My Children, One Life to Live and General Hospital.
