Merri Howard - Co-Executive Producer of LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE

"What happens right now is that everybody wants to, you know, not get the coffee. Everybody has to pay their dues, and in paying your dues, it's about learning. That's what so important to me. It's like, you will get there. but you know, it's slow and easy and you don't want to be the person who goes in and basically gets the job in a year, year and a half but doesn't have the knowledge." - Merri Howard ⁣⁣ Merri Howard has thrived as a TV producer for over 30 years. ⁣⁣She became a part of the Shondaland family in 2011 working on SCANDAL since the pilot, along with THE CATCH and FOR THE PEOPLE. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Most recently, she was the Co-Executive Producer on Little Fires Hulu, a limited series for Hulu with Kerry Washington & Reese Witherspoon. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣The timing is ironic as so much of our chat is about slowing down. We also discuss the importance of paying your dues, your attitude and perception, and all the little fires she had to put out on little fires everywhere. Merri's generosity is palpable and I'm incredibly grateful we get to spend this hour with her. Enjoy! Xoxo, Caca
