History
Anonymous Content was founded in 1999 by CEO Steve Golin.
In May 2011, it was announced that Anonymous Content's talent management division had been expanded by adding managers Tony Lipp, Sandra Chang, and Doug Wald, which brought several major talents with them.[2]
In March 2014, Anonymous Content appointed David Fierson as Head of Business Operations.[3] In May, the company signed a three-year first look production deal with Paramount Television, in which Paramount would produce and distribute scripted programming developed by Anonymous.[4][5] Michael Sugar became a partner at the Los Angeles-based company.[6]
In September 2015, Alix Madigan left Anonymous and joined Broad Green Pictures, previously working staff producer.[7]
In January 2016, Anonymous Content signed on a deal with MBC Group's 03 Productions to help and advise them on developing and producing both Arabic and English-language content.[4] In February, Kevin Cotter was hired as Director of Literary Affairs at the company's New York office, where he would oversee researching books, articles and other intellectual property for the company to develop and produce.[8]
