Amanda Congdon Bio
Amanda is the president of Oxmour Entertainment, a boutique video production house specializing in interactive media. As a mobile TV producer, on-camera personality, videoblogger, and new media pioneer she has created and co-created many different video projects, including AC on ABC, Amanda Across America, Rocketboom, and Starring Amanda Congdon. Her latest venture is a foray into the world of mobile television. Thanks to a partnership with FLO TV, she brings her current show, Sometimesdaily, to people on the go via cellphones, rear seat entertainment devices and personal televisions. Amanda incorporates news, man-on-the-street interviews, sketch comedy, performance art and road tripping into the content she produces. Throughout her journeys, she has interviewed literally thousands of people from celebrities such as Will Smith, Diddy, Gene Simmons and Ludacris, to senior political and media figures such as Dan Rather, Mike Huckabee and Tom Vilsack. But Amanda's favorite people to speak with on camera are the everyday folks she meets on the street. In October 2009 Amanda left all of her earthly possessions in a California storage unit and took Sometimesdaily on the road. Since then she's traveled through Hawaii, California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas interviewing interesting people and visiting places of cultural significance – all with the camera rolling. Born and raised in New York City, Amanda graduated Magna Cum Laude from Northwestern University with an undergraduate degree in Organizational Communications and a minor in English Literature. Her career has been documented in The New York Times, BusinessWeek, Newsweek, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, The CBS Evening News, The Washington Post, The LA Times, The Hollywood Reporter, WIRED, Paper Magazine, Interview Magazine, Cosmopolitan Magazine, and on countless blogs. She has appeared on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation as herself and has written for WIRED, PopularScience.com and SXSW Magazine.
