Kristen Harding is a Florida-born New Yorker directing, writing, and producing in LA.

She is currently the Head of Video & Audio at Entertainment Weekly where she leads a team in the creative, strategy, and production of high-end video and audio content.

She helped usher EW into the digital age when the magazine's iconic print covers were reimagined into dynamic digital covers—a format that’s become both a signature and a sensation. Her original concepts and sharp direction of A-list talent have earned EW's award-winning digital covers a cult-like following and widespread industry acclaim. 

As a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts film school, Kristen has a deep-rooted passion for artistic expression through the medium of storytelling, and her work often fuses naturalism and surrealism to create a new, distinct perspective.

She has worked in collaboration with A24, ABC, Apple, Amazon, AMC, BBC, CBS, College Humor, Disney, FX, Google, HBO, Hulu, Lionsgate Films, Lucasfilm, Marvel, MTV, NBC, Netflix, Paramount, People Magazine, Saturday Night Live, Sesame Street, Showtime, Universal Pictures and Warners Bros., among others.
