iHeart Taps Hall As Digital PD, LA & SF
• iHeartMedia Los Angeles announced that Doug Hall is returning to beautiful Downtown Burbank as the newly named Regional Digital Program Director for the company’s 14+ stations in Los Angeles and San Francisco, effective immediately.
As Regional Digital PD, Hall will be responsible for the strategy, audience growth, and maximizing iHeartMedia’s digital platforms in both markets. He will report to John Peake, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Los Angeles, who commented, “Our iconic Los Angeles audio brands and on-air talent are the engines that are driving unprecedented Digital growth. I’ve watched Doug grow and evolve from his time in promotions to leading winning teams in San Francisco, Miami and Nashville. We are fortunate to have him leading our LA Digital efforts and rejoining the team in San Francisco.”
Hall started his radio career in 2006 as a Promotions Assistant at KIIS-FM/Los Angeles. After a few years in that role, he worked his way into the developing digital department, where he was instrumental in building the video strategy and team for the iHeartRadio Los Angeles cluster from the ground up. He was later named Digital Director in the Miami and San Francisco markets. Most recently Hall has been on the national iHeartRadio team as a Sr. Digital Director based in Nashville, but will now relocate back to Los Angeles to take on his new role as Regional Digital PD.
“I’m excited for this full-circle moment, coming back to Los Angeles, where it all started,” said Hall. “I can’t wait to dive in and help both our Los Angeles and San Francisco markets continue to grow and innovate in the digital space.” [Photo credit: iHeartMedia Los Angeles]
