Lisa Hamilton Daly

Daly’s mission to make Hallmark programming better reflect the everyday diversity of the real world has delivered more than solid ratings: in 2023, Hallmark Media was nominated for a GLAAD Award and won multiple Gracie Awards accolades, a feat she accomplished without sacrificing what fans love. Once again, the annual “Countdown To Christmas” dominated Q4 in Women 18+. This year Daly’s bringing original unscripted series to Hallmark Media with “Celebrations with Lacey Chabert,” debuting soon on Hallmark’s streaming service.
