Natalie Winston is the Executive Producer of Booking and Specials. She runs NPR's day to day booking operation and is the point person on all major interviews, ensuring NPR hears from the right people at the right times across all broadcast and digital platforms.
Winston also oversees Live Specials, including planned and unplanned breaking news coverage and taped specials featuring the best of NPR's journalism. She comes to this role after five years as Executive Producer of All Things Considered on the weekends.
