Lisa Morin, the executive producer of Oprah for fifteen years, has signed on to executive produce Anderson Cooper’s forthcoming new daytime talk show, Anderson, according to the Hollywood Reporter:

“From the inception of this show, we knew we wanted to have a combination of producers from various genres to create a truly multi-dimensional show in order to capitalize on Anderson’s broad range and the variety of topics we plan to cover to distinguish it in daytime,” said Estey McLoughlin, president of Telepictures. “Lisa is one of the premier producers in talk television with a 15-year track record at Oprah. Her daytime talk experience perfectly complements Jim’s morning show and news experience to create a great team to lead the show.”
“Lisa is a remarkable talent and I am so happy that she is joining our team,” said Cooper. “We want to create a really interesting, entertaining, and informative daytime program and Lisa has a terrific vision for the program and the experience needed to make it a reality. I am so excited to start working with her.”
