Memo Salazar. Producer.
As an award-winning Producer, Memo has shepherded many projects from start to finish, including narrative shorts, documentaries, and stop-motion animations for Sesame Street. He produced the open and wraparounds for the Amy Schumer-produced Comedy Central pilot Rachel Profiling, segments for the 9-11 documentary When Pop Culture Saved America; the theatrically-released farming documentary American Meat, and, most recently, Gold Anthem Award-winning Playtime With Noor & Aziz, which was the first (and only) TV series ever made specifically for the Rohingya population. He has also produced media for Alan Alda’s Dear Albert, promotional interviews with great directors such as Werner Herzog and Miranda July, and a wide variety of projects for The World Science Festival, including comedies, animations, music videos, and even media for a pair of Brian Greene stage productions: Spooky Action and Light Falls. He most recently served as Supervising Producer on The Power of Play, a caregiver-facing series spanning several continents and languages, as well as on Sesame Workshop’s Watch, Play, Learn– an epic, 140-episode animated series starring Cookie Monster and Elmo.
