Stacy Traub: The Impact Of Writing a Modern Sitcom

Welcome to the Cinema of Change podcast with Tobias Deml and Robert Rippberger. Cinema of Change is a magazine and community that challenges the conventions of film and its ability to effect change in the world. This episode is an interview with television producer-writer Stacy Traub titled “The Impact Of Writing a Modern Sitcom”.

Stacy Traub is a prolific TV writer, producer and EP; she helmed the show “The Real O’Neals” to wide distribution on ABC for multiple seasons, telling the story of a catholic family whose oldest son is gay and struggles with coming out to his family. The show had a wide impact among the LGBTQ community while also being appreciated within a wider family audience on ABC.
Stacy then joined “Black-ish” as an Executive Producer for its fourth season, also with ABC. Before both shows, she co-EP’d “Glee”. Now she’s sharing her deep insights with us, both in producing and writing popular TV shows – and the impact the team had with them.
