Hi,

I am delighted and excited to welcome Nicole Beemsterboer who starts today on the podcast team as the Executive Producer of Big Take. Please join me in welcoming her to the team.

Nicole will be leading our growing and fabulous team of producers, editors and hosts as we build on our flagship daily podcast and grow the franchise with a new stand-alone sister-podcast Big Take DC.

Nicole Beemsterboer is a seasoned and award-winning producer and editor who was most recently the Managing Director of Gimlet Media. There, she led the studio’s programming, including WSJ’s daily podcast, The Journal, and managed its 80 reporters, producers and hosts, as well as business development and operations. Last year she led the studio to its first Pulitzer Prize in Audio as well as a Peabody. Before that Nicole spent more than 15 years at NPR, where she led the network’s seasonal and long form programming and was the senior producer of Investigations. Her work on the 2017 series, Lost Mothers, helped start a national conversation on the state of maternal care across the country. She also spent 7 years as a producer on NPR’s flagship broadcast news show, Morning Edition, and covered stories in the Middle East and Africa.

Please join me in welcoming Nicole to the team.

Thank you,
