Carl Bloom Associates Partners With Mary Ann Donahue, Public Broadcasting's Top On-Air Fundraising Producer

Ms. Donahue is widely recognized as one of the leaders in pledge drive production in the public broadcasting system. She is best known for her 20 years of service to Thirteen/WNET New York, America’s most-watched public broadcasting station, as Director of On-Air Production, where she was a multiple “On-Air Achievement” Development Award winner. Mary Ann is also a four-time Emmy Award-winning producer and writer whose experience covers all aspects of entertainment media from Broadway to daytime television and feature films. Her responsibilities at Thirteen included the scheduling of pledge drives, writing and editing of pledge break scripts, casting and directing pledge ‘talent’ and projecting on-air revenue. It is exactly these services that Donahue will now offer to stations, as a CBA Associate.
