My career exists at the intersection of entertainment and politics.

Hannah Lifshutz is an Austin-based producer, creative director, and political operative focusing on creative storytelling for progressive causes and campaigns. Currently, I’m the Creative Director of the Democratic Governors Association, where I lead our video, graphic design, and social media teams.

During the 2022 election cycle, I worked as the Creative Director for Collective Impact - a political non-profit that works with celebrities and influencers to amplify key calls to action on behalf of progressive causes, campaigns, and candidates. As the Creative Director, I oversaw our organization’s content development & campaign strategy, working with our team and our partners to develop scalable digital campaigns across social media.

Prior to joining the Collective Impact team, I was the Content Director at the Texas Democratic Party. There I led our content department as we created viral videos for TDP’s social channels, managed all aspects of video production for the 2020 Texas Democratic Convention, and oversaw the development and execution of virtual events.

Before making my way back to Texas, I lived in New York City where I worked as an editorial producer at Paper Magazine and a news writer & editor at Complex Networks. My greatest achievement is and will forever be that one time I made Jordan Peele laugh. When I’m not working, you can find me making pottery featuring crustaceans, forcibly cuddling my dog Benny, at a concert, or eating crawfish.
