ABOUT JUNE JENNINGS
I’m a communications strategist with nearly a decade of experience driving publicity campaigns across independent film and public media.
I specialize in building narratives that resonate. From podcast launches to Oscar campaigns, I focus on earned media wins, audience insights, and close collaboration with external and internal partners to help bold, timely storytelling find its audience.
I currently lead publicity efforts for NPR Podcasts, the powerhouse producer of Golden Globe nominee Up First, Embedded, Planet Money and Wild Card with Rachel Martin, in NYC. Prior joining NPR, I led marketing and communications for the Emmy-winning PBS series American Masters and Webby nominee The Bigger Picture with Vincent Brown.
For five years, I managed engagement, partnerships, festivals and awards for Field of Vision, the acclaimed documentary unit that has produced multiple Academy Award® nominees for Best Documentary Short, including In the Absence, the first-ever South Korean film in the category.
I was also host of The Doc Exchange: A Real Stories Podcast, where I interviewed celebrated documentary filmmakers about the films that have changed their lives and influenced their work.
In another life, I was an assistant editor at O, The Oprah Magazine. You can find my writing for O and other outlets here.
