The studio was created by husband and wife duo Jonathan Shifflett and Mary Knauf. The pair met working in public radio and bonded over their passion for making ‘driveway radio’ – audio stories a person can’t turn off even after they’ve finished their commute home.
Mary has produced major shows like Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen’s “Renegades” and NBC’s “The Thing About Pam,” which was adapted into a TV series starring Renée Zellweger. A talented writer with a keen eye for editing, Mary is known for her ability to sharpen a narrative and get to the heart of what a show is trying to do. Accolades include being featured as a “Producer to Watch” by Vulture Magazine, and executive producing the Tribeca finalist “Dreamtown: The Story of Adelanto.”
Jonathan is an accomplished radio journalist, sound designer and composer. As a producer for KPCC’s “The Frame,” he profiled writers, artists, musicians and actors, and received a Golden Mic award for best entertainment reporting. He has produced and sound designed critically acclaimed shows for outlets such as Spotify, HBO, and Apple. Jonathan is a graduate of USC’s Thornton School of Music. As a trained classical musician, he brings a distinctly musical ear to his finished products.
