Brenner has been with the company since 2018 and has worked on campaigns across the Walking Dead and Anne Rice Immortal universes. She was previously with Wenner Media, Time Inc. and Condé Nast and started her career at Miramax Films.
Cox has been with AMC Networks since 2016, when he started working on IFC with shows such as Portlandia and Documentary Now!. He has since worked on series including Dark Winds and Anne Rice’s Talamasca: The Secret Order and Acorn TV’s Art Detectives. He was previously with NBCUniversal.
“Kathryn and Stephen are talented communications strategists who’ve built strong relationships with the press and our creative talent and partners, driving many of our most important and impactful publicity campaigns,” said Dupuis. “Their strategic vision, leadership and enthusiasm for the work shows up in everything they do, and I’m thrilled for them to move into these expanded roles, especially as we look ahead to an exciting 2026 slate of new and returning series that will bring new opportunities to showcase the strength of our brands, the quality of our content and our unique relationship with fans.”
