Hartbeat recently opened a new Los Angeles headquarters and is about to open new New York and Atlanta offices as it uses its private equity money to boost production, CEO Thai Randolph says. She dined with Kerry this month as part of our "1 big meal" interview series.
Why she matters: Randolph was named CEO of Kevin Hart's media company in 2022, after leading a $100 million raise from Abry Partners. She was previously president and COO of Laugh Out Loud and COO of HartBeat Productions, which merged into Hartbeat.
