Writing What’s Real with Ana Bretón

Meet Ana

Ana Bretón is a Latina director and producer who is a very funny lady. She currently works as a producer on The Kelly Clarkson Show on NBC. She also worked as a digital producer at The Drew Barrymore Show and Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, where she was nominated for two Emmy awards.

She keeps us laughing with her hilarious and often viral tweets on politics, pop culture, and becoming a mother in a global pandemic. When she’s not making us all laugh, she’s digging more deeply into the human experience with her narrative reporting in Bust Magazine. We enjoyed this conversation with Ana about writing, life, and parenting her two-year-old daughter.

  • You can keep up with Ana on Twitter or Instagram.

  • In this episode, we discuss her time volunteering at the US-Mexico border. You can read the article she wrote about her experience in Bust Magazine here (you should definitely give it a read).

  • Learn more about Ana’s work at her website.
