SVP, Distribution Marketing, Fox Networks Group

Bigalow and her team are responsible for developing multiplatform marketing initiatives that enhance partnerships between the company and its content distributors. Under her leadership, the Fox Networks distribution marketing team earned numerous Promax/BDA Awards and CTAM Mark Awards. Along with a hectic work schedule, Bigalow makes time to volunteer at her children’s school. She looks no further than her own network to cite an example of ground-breaking programming for women. “I am really proud of Fox’s new show, ‘Pitch,’ for breaking gender barriers and creating a story about the first female pitcher in the MLB,” Bigalow says.
