What We Do
Extraordinary talent deserves extraordinary support. We represent comedians, actors, writers, directors, and multi-hyphenates across every discipline, with a deep commitment to emerging and underrepresented voices. We work closely with every client, bringing genuine attention and real investment to every stage of their career — building careers that are as bold and lasting as the talent behind them. We're in it for the long haul, hands-on from the first conversation to the biggest stage.
Who We Are
Peabody Award-winning manager/producer Jennie Church-Cooper has spent the last 18 years working with comedic writer-performers — scouting, cultivating, and propelling them into careers as TV and feature writers, showrunners, directors, podcasters, actors and more. In 2026 she launched her own management company with her longtime clients, Hello Sailor Media. Previously, she worked at Levity Entertainment and Haven Entertainment, and she built her roster of multihyphenate talent during seven years at Principato Young Entertainment (now Artists First). In addition to numerous comedy specials, Church-Cooper exec produced Netflix’s talk show Patriot Act, which ran for six seasons. Since 2019, she has also served on the Leadership Committee for the nonprofit Yes, And Laughter Lab, a competitive incubation lab, pitch program, and showcase that champions and amplifies diverse writers and performers creating new comedy about topics that matter. She is an in-demand speaker for organizations such as the Ladies of Comedy Association, and the Austin Film Festival Writers Conference, addressing topics such as finding your own creative voice, and the business of breaking into film & TV writing.
