As director of digital media/senior editor, Andrew Golis is responsible for
integrating the series’ broadcast, Web and new media initiatives and supporting its ongoing
effort to remake the series for the digital age. He is a part of FRONTLINE’s senior editorial
team, overseen by Executive Producer David Fanning and Series Senior
Producer Raney Aronson-Rath, and oversees the Web editorial, Web
design and media outreach teams.

Previously, Andrew was the founding editor of the Upshot blog network at Yahoo! News. He built a staff of about a dozen all-star reporter-bloggers and editors to launch five blogs — The Upshot, The Ticket, The Lookout, The Cutline and The Envoy. The New York Observer called the new blog network the second biggest media launch of 2010.

Andrew was also the deputy publisher of Talking Points Memo. During his three years at TPM, he helped manage that company’s explosive editorial, audience and business growth. Naming TPM one of the best blogs of 2009, Time magazine called it "the prototype of what a successful Web-based news organization is likely to be in the future."

Andrew speaks and consults regularly on digital journalism. Past speaking venues have included: Columbia Journalism School, The Knight Digital Media Center at UC Berkeley, the European NewsXchange conference in Malta and the Paley Center for Media in New York.

He graduated with honors from Harvard University with a degree in American political history.
