Among her many leadership roles in the entertainment industry, Lattacker-Johnson represented artists at A3 Artists Agency and was the Head of Unscripted Programming at OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, where she creatively led over a dozen new series and specials.
Lattaker-Johnson earned an MFA from the Art Center College of Design in Film Directing. She says that community was one of the most impactful parts of her undergraduate experience: “Being at the University of Washington showed me the community that the black students can create…That’s where I was able to get really involved in community and mentorship and fundraising and canned food drives. What my mom taught me, to always give back to your community, and the college experience really kind of solidified my path and my journey and things that I still do to this day.” Lattaker-Johnson recently gave back to UW Communication at our LA Career Exploration trip, inspiring students by sharing her career path and her challenges and successes in the entertainment industry.
