In 2024, The Hollywood Reporter named Cordova Kramer among the ‘Most Powerful People in Podcasting.’ In 2022 and 2023, she was named among the "Top 50 Most Powerful People in Podcasting," by Podcast Daily News and Inside Radio. Cordova Kramer was previously the executive producer of the Pod Save the People podcast, which has won multiple Webby awards. She began her professional career as a Wall Street lawyer who moonlighted on pro bono domestic violence and refugee cases, then worked for Teach for America and Teach for All for more than a decade.
