Tiffany Faigus and Ariane Wu Join Amazon as Jenn Levy Builds Her Nonfiction Team

EXCLUSIVE: Jenn Levy has taken the reins as Head of Unscripted and Documentary Television at Amazon earlier this year. With her appointment, Levy has established a senior leadership team and rebranded the division.

Joining Levy’s team are former Disney executive Tiffany Faigus and ex-Netflix executive Ariane Wu. Faigus has been appointed as Senior Creative Executive of Unscripted Series while Wu will serve as Senior Creative Executive of Documentary Series.

Faigus, who comes to Amazon from EverWonder Studio—known for its work on Netflix’s Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model—was previously EVP and Executive Producer there. She joined EverWonder in January 2025 after a notable nine-year tenure at Disney, where she served as SVP of Unscripted and Alternative Entertainment for ABC Entertainment and Walt Disney Television Alternative.

During her time at Disney, Faigus was instrumental in producing popular series like Shark Tank, Holey Moley, and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, in addition to Hulu’s hit reality series The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

Faigus will report directly to Levy, starting on May 11. In a memo to staff, Levy praised Faigus as “a veteran unscripted executive with over 20 years of experience at the highest levels of the genre,” noting her creative expertise as essential for the growth of their content slate.

Wu, starting on June 3, joins from Netflix, where she held the position of Director of Original Documentary Film for eight years. During her tenure, she contributed to over 80 projects, including The Tinder Swindler, Unknown Number: The High School Catfish, The Greatest Night in Pop, and Our Father.

Levy commended Wu for her strong connections within the nonfiction community and her skill in merging impactful storytelling with prestige projects. The former President of 32 Flavors expressed her enthusiasm for the contributions both Faigus and Wu will make, stating, “These hires reflect our ambition to build a world-class Nonfiction team and cement Prime Video as a premier destination for Unscripted and Documentary Series.”
