After 42 years at Variety, awards editor and senior vice president Tim Gray has left the Hollywood trade publication to serve as executive vice president of the Golden Globes.
Gray will also serve on the board of the Golden Globes organization, working closely with president Helen Hoehne to expand the institution, which was acquired by Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge Industries following the dissolution of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
As EVP of the Golden Globes, Gray will oversee its membership and board of directors. Gray leaves Variety after most recently serving as SVP. He previously served as editor-in-chief of the trade, helming the company through a for-sale period in the 2010s before Penske Media Corporation acquired Variety. Pmc and Eldridge own Dick Clark Productions under a joint venture, which means Gray will still work with Penske. He has also written a book titled “75 Years of the Golden Globe Awards.”

Variety legend Tim Gray, who first joined Hollywood’s dominant trade publication in 1981, has departed after 42 years to start a new chapter with the Golden Globes organization as executive vice president. Gray, who will also serve on its board, will work closely with Golden Globes president Helen Hoehne to evolve the entity — which was formed in June, when Dick Clark Prods. and Eldridge Industries acquired the Golden Globes’ assets, rights and properties from the now-defunct Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Gray’s appointment comes as the Golden Globes on Thursday also announced its new membership board of directors, and finalized the timetable for its 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards. The ceremony, currently scheduled to take place on January 7, 2024, does not yet have a broadcast partner.

The Golden Globes, which is embarking on a new era after it was acquired by Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge from longtime operator the Hollywood Foreign Press Association earlier this summer, on Thursday revealed its new membership board of directors and timeline for the 2024 awards, which take place January 7.
Organizers said today that the Golden Globes nominations for the 81st edition will be announced Monday, December 11. (See the full timeline below.) Still to come: naming a broadcaster for the ceremony, after its most recent deal with NBC ended with this year’s show. Discussions have been held with outlets including NBC, and an announcement on a new deal is expected by October 2, organizers said today. We hear the ceremony will likely stay at its longtime home at the Beverly Hilton.
The 2023 ceremony, hosted by Jarrod Carmichael, was the first after a year’s absence from TV following a restructure at...

Tim Gray, a widely known and respected entertainment journalist who has worked at Variety for the past 42 years, most recently as its svp features, is leaving the trade publication to become the evp of the Golden Globes organization (“the Golden Globes” for short) and oversee its new membership board of directors, the organization announced Wednesday.
Back in June, the Golden Globes replaced the Hollywood Foreign Press Association as the backers of the annual Golden Globe Awards following the acquisition of all the HFPA’s assets, rights and properties by Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge. (Dcp and The Hollywood Reporter share the same ownership.)
Gray’s hiring appears to be part of an effort on the part of the new ownership to restore industry confidence in the Golden Globe Awards, the standing of which was not helped in recent years by questionable ethical and financial conduct on the part of the HFPA.

The Golden Globes rollercoaster continues with the Thursday announcement of a newly formed Membership Board of Directors, plus a timetable for the 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards.
The event, now planned, hosted, and produced by Dick Clark Productions (Dcp), is dissolving the Hollywood Foreign Press Association as we know it, with the new Membership Board of Directors now being responsible for selecting, ratifying and accrediting journalists as voting members for the upcoming awards ceremony in January. The group is said to uphold and enforce rigorous standards and practices for the voting body, and is composed of nine in total, of which five are appointed independent entertainment or media professionals and four others elected from within the Golden Globe Association membership.
Helen Hoehne, former President of the HFPA, is now Golden Globes President, with Tim Gray, former awards editor and Senior Vice President for Variety, joining her and the organization as Executive Vice President effective immediately.

The embattled Hollywood Foreign Press Association has admitted its largest-ever class of new members. The 21 recruits cap the group’s six-month process of reforms amid a “commitment to diversity and inclusion.”
The new group is a diverse one, with 48% identifying as women, 29% as Black, 24% as Asian, 29% identify as Latinx and 19% as Middle Eastern/North African. See the list below.
“We are thrilled to welcome these new members into our family,” said HFPA President Helen Hoehne. “We are building a new organization, one that is not focused on fulfilling quotas, but instead has diversity and inclusion at its core, has ethical conduct as the norm, and has people of color involved in every aspect of the Association — from membership to executive leadership. That is how we’re growing an inclusive environment, and for us to make this much progress in six months is a testament to our membership and our dedication to building something better.
