In her new role, Altman is responsible for planning, distribution and promotional activities for these premium product lines.

With over 30 years of broadcast experience, Altman brings extensive expertise in professional video systems sales, marketing and business development. Prior to joining Panasonic, Altman was the Director of New Business Development for Glue Editing & Design, a New York City-based post production facility with clients such as ESPN, HBO and PBS. In that post, she developed and implemented sales and marketing strategies to expand its high definition client base.

In addition, Altman has served as an independent sales consultant with top systems integrators, including the Miami-based Broadcast International Group, where she helped to expand their sales and marketing efforts and provided counsel for the design and development of the first digital radio and television stations based in the English-speaking commonwealth of the Caribbean.

Altman’s experience also includes executive positions with several broadcast and systems engineering firms, including the Systems Division at A.F. Associates (currently known as Ascent Media Group) where, as Vice President, she drove the company’s strategy in broadcast systems, securing numerous high-value contracts, including the first digital cable network for USA Networks.
