Amy Winter

Winter brings a nurturing approach to every facet of her life, making Up TV a haven of positive content as she creatively guides the network’s brand and programming. Repositioning Up with the tagline “We Get Family” resonated with the net’s audience while bringing in new viewers, and resulted in recent double-digit growth across all key demos and a drop in average age by almost 10 years. With the industry and technology evolving more quickly than ever before, Winter believes next year’s headlines will continue to be dominated by “the what, when, where, how and why of viewer habits.”
