As director of historical programming for The History Channel and executive producer for many of its series and specials, Margaret Kim played a key role in the network’s positioning and programming. She was the creator and executive producer of the hit series “Digging for the Truth” and oversaw the development of “Decoding the Past,” “Decisive Battles,” and “History Now.” Her many honors include a 2004 Peabody Award for “Rwanda: Do Scars Ever Fade?” The documentary explored, through the eyes of survivors, the history behind the events of the 1994 genocide and how a country haunted by such events can recover. The work also received two Emmy nominations, as did her program “Beyond the Da Vinci Code.” Before joining The History Channel, Kim worked at CBS News, ABC News and Sports, NBC Sports, and MSNBC, where she served as producer for the biography series “Headliners & Legends with Matt Lauer.” After graduating from Williams in 1991, she earned a master’s degree in international affairs at Columbia University.
