Rebecca is a showrunner in non-fiction television and has written and produced hundreds of hours of TV for ROKU, Netflix, Discovery Channel, MotorTrend, OWN, CBS, A&E, and History Channel, amongst others. Some of her favorite projects include: KINGS OF BBQ with Cedric the Entertainer and Anthony Anderson; KEVIN HART’S MUSCLE CAR CREW; FAST N’ LOUD; THE UNIVERSE; and THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE PRESIDENTS. Her work has taken her around the world; from the top of skyscrapers to dangling off container ships.
After many years of discovering amazing true stories in her travels, Rebecca set up her production shingle GRANDI STORIE, Inc. to develop these “great stories” in the non-fiction and narrative space.
She is an active Producers Guild of America member, having once served as a Vice President. She was a long-standing Power of Diversity workshop mentor and a founding member of the PGA Social Impact Entertainment Task Force. She has proudly represented her producing peers on the Producers Executive Peer Group Committee for the TV Academy.
She is a founding partner and head of strategy at the SIE Society, a leading alliance of practitioners of social impact entertainment across multiple media genres, whose mission is to connect, equip, and amplify SIE organizations, creatives, impact producers, CSR, and SBCC practitioners. www.siesociety.org
A Colby College alum and east-coaster at heart, Rebecca started her career in Boston producing commercials for brand giants such as Chevrolet, Fidelity Investments, and Pizzeria Uno.
She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from Mount Saint Mary’s University and is “this close” to finishing her debut novel.
Her latest venture is a new non-fiction podcast launching in 2024 entitled, “Unraveled: After DNA Discovery,” with host and wellness coach Judy Ben-Asher and former Surgeon General Dr. Richard Carmona.
Her first job in entertainment was a singing waitress on the Spirit of Boston.
