As the senior executive in the department, Levison will supervise the network's comedy development efforts, working as the company's key creative liaison with studios, writers and production executives.

"While serving in our Alternative and Drama departments, Susan has worked on some of FOX's biggest shows, from AMERICAN IDOL to HOUSE, and I look forward to the energy and perspective she will bring on the comedy genre," said Mr. Erwich.
