Chasing new possibilities, crafting unforgettable stories, and building with the best of the best.

Magenta Graham is that rare mix of Emmy-winning producer and everybody’s favorite cousin, the one who somehow knows all the right people and still remembers your birthday. She’s been in the entertainment game for over eight years, running from Oakland newsrooms to L.A. red carpets, producing for E! News and creating culture-shaping stories at Entertainment Tonight. She’s worked with everyone from Ciara to H.E.R. to Nicole Scherzinger, and along the way she’s built a reputation for making content that doesn’t just entertain but actually moves culture forward.

​

People always ask her how she manages to keep so many lasting relationships in such a cutthroat industry. Her answer? She leads with kindness. That’s her superpower. It’s the same energy that made her a natural when she was a substitute teacher, and holding down classrooms from kindergarten finger painting to twelfth-grade english essays. Teaching taught her patience, storytelling taught her empathy, and together they gave her the ability to connect with just about anyone.

​

When she’s not producing, Magenta is probably binging a series that everyone needs to be talking about, laughing until her stomach hurts, or getting lost in a trashy romance novel (yes, the cheesier the better). She believes the best stories come from real experiences, the kind you overhear on the train, the ones you swap over drinks with friends, and especially the ones passed down by aunties.

 

A proud California native, Magenta studied Journalism at Temple University and earned her Master’s in Multimedia Communications from the Academy of Art University. Today, she’s based in Los Angeles, and constantly looking for new ways to connect, create, and bring a little more magic into the world.

"Magenta sparks creativity. She has the skills to elevate her unique content ideas through an expert visual narrative and a polished finish." - Lawrence Dechant: Producer Entertainment Tonight

"I worked alongside Magenta for six years, watching her contribute an enormous body of work to the ET brand across multiple formats and platforms. Whether it was stories she herself brought to the table or tackling ongoing news beats, there were always added details and a unique imprint present that elevated video packages from good -- to great. In order to stand out in a competitive market, any news producer will tell you it's these extra-mile nuances that make all the difference in not only capturing the attention of your core audience, but also with reaching beyond subscribers and bringing more people to a brand.." - Joe Bergren: Producer Entertainment Tonight
