Lisa O'Brien is a self described Creative Alchemist. She thought she was going to be a school teacher but her vision of teaching transformed into educational entertainment programming for kids. She began her career as a children's TV series producer in Canada. She brought that experience to Hollywood and built an impressive resume of creative development and production with the Disney Channel, The Jim Henson Company, Sprout/PBS (now NBC Universal) then on to NBC Kids and most recently, Cartoon Network. Lisa's infectious joy in her job has its roots in a profound desire to give back.
