President and General Manager, History

Nancy Dubuc has transformed History. Now president and general manager of the cable network—which she has been helming since January 2007—Dubuc has creatively steered the network from one that only looked back in time to one that also shows history in the making. By launching testosterone-driven, tough-guy programming like Ice Road Truckers and Ax Men and powerful specials like “102 Minutes That Changed America,” which recently won three Emmy awards, Dubuc is responsible for green-lighting ten of the top-rated series and five of the highest-rated specials ever for the network. Under her, History’s Web traffic is up by more than 400 percent.
