MTV Head of Development to Depart, VH1’s Lily Neumeyer to Oversee Both Networks

MTV’s head of development Eli Lehrer is departing the network, the media company announced on Tuesday in a joint statement with VH1.

Lehrer, who was appointed to the position by unscripted head Nina Diaz in December, will be replaced by VH1’s Lily Neumeyer, who will now oversee both networks.

MTV’s head of scripted development Mina Lefevre departed the network for Facebook last month.

Prior to joining VH1 in July, Neumeyer served as Vice President of Nonfiction and Alternative Programming at A&E. There she developed and executive produced shows including “Duck Dynasty,” Wahlburgers and “Nightwatch.”
