Editor’s Note: In April 2023, Dawn Solér, ABC Signature’s SVP of Music and a 16 1/2-year veteran of the studio, was one of several executives to leave Disney TV amid the ongoing Hollywood downsizing. Here, Solér reflects on the past year and the lessons she’s learned since leaving the corporate world.
Dawn Solér – Powerful music supervisor changing the way we watch TV
It has been over a year since I officially stopped being an employee.
No bitterness, for the journey has brought me here. Wisdom can only come from experience and must be used to improve those who come after me.
I will always have so much love for my last company, for the legacy, the amazing stories, the memories I got to share, and the things I got to create with it. I truly appreciate that working for Disney was part of the life I have and the opportunity to follow my own dreams now. This, after all the hard lessons I learned about people and the realization that I didn’t fit in there. So thank you.
