“I am so thrilled to be officially joining the team at The Network,” said Shor. “Aram and I have collaborated on a number of projects now and I wholeheartedly believe in the approach that he is taking to create premium content that not only speaks to consumers, but allows artists to explore new territory and take a more active role in the creative process.”
