EVP, Engineering and Software Design
Cablevision Systems
Kanouff didn’t join the cable industry in typical fashion. She says, “I was working on mathematical algorithms for compression and pattern recognition in radar signals. I heard that cable was going digital and thought that transition could use a mathematician to compress and transport video. It’s been a lot of fun ever since.” Kanouff’s focus on interactive TV technology has propelled her from Time Warner Cable to Seachange and now to Cablevision. Her latest project: Help Cablevision develop a new version of its interactive program guide.
