JACKIE PRAGER
PRODUCER & STORYTELLER
Hi, I’m Jackie
If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I’m a storyteller at heart with nearly a decade of experience writing, producing, and managing impactful content across platforms.
Since 2022, I’ve worked as a producer at CNN International Productions on series like Connecting Africa, African Voices Changemakers, and Vital Signs with Dr. Sanjay Gupta. I thrive in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments. Whether I’m coordinating domestic shoots or traveling internationally, I strive to capture unique and powerful character-driven stories.
Before producing, I was a writer at CNN International, scripting daily newscasts and covering major events like the George Floyd protests and the COVID-19 pandemic. I began my career at WBNG as a reporter, weekend anchor, and producer. While there, I led a team of reporters to ensure our content, from live broadcasts to social media updates, came together cohesively and accurately.
What drives me is the chance to tell stories that matter—whether breaking news or feature stories -- I’m always seeking fresh, creative ways to connect with audiences and inspire others.
Check out my portfolio and reach out—I’d love to collaborate.
