We are developing new original programming with particular focus on the luminaries of music, sports, and comedy,” said Rishi Malhotra, Luminary CEO. “Luminary is a one-of-a-kind company that is becoming the home for artists with a unique point of view, from Dave Chapelle and Roxane Gay to Russel Brand, Lena Dunham, and Guy Raz. Two additional new members will also join Jealous on Luminary’s Board of Directors – Heather Hiles and Mara Buxbam. The company also announced Pilot Boy Productions, owned by Chapelle, has invested in Luminary and joined Luminary’s Board of Directors with its seat filled by Ben Jealous.
