Below are some nice things colleagues have said about working with me.

“Lacy worked with our team to make Authentic: The Story of Tablo. As an editor on the series, Lacy’s notes were always incredibly focused, sharp, contextualized and leaving room for a nuanced discussion. Anytime I found myself unsure about an element of the story- Lacy always provided a bird’s eye view that helped immensely! Her feedback was invaluable and she truly elevated our series. Not only was her editorial feedback great- but I could count on Lacy to be organized, responsive and detail oriented when it came to the logistical parts of the production. Anyone would be lucky to have Lacy on their team!”

 — Stephanie Kariuki, Senior Producer, VICE Audio

“Lacy worked with our team at CNN to make two limited series podcasts. In both cases we had tight turnaround times and limited resources. Lacy jumped right in, adjusting her workflow to ours in a matter of days. She was a great communicator and collaborator, thoughtful in every idea, response, and edit. As a story editor was able to see the arch of each episodes and see how each episode fits into the larger series. Her story editing was essential to the success of both shows. I hope to work with her again soon.”

- Haley Thomas, Senior Producer, CNN

“As an audio storyteller, there is no collaborator more important to me than an editor, and no editor who I trust more than Lacy Roberts. She is incisive, rigorous and empathetic — a truly original thinker who can hear what it is the story could be, and help you find the way there. After we had worked together on Closer Than They Appear (Al Jazeera) and Over the Road (Radiotopia), Lacy was the first person I reached out to when I started working on my original series Forever is a Long Time. She became an essential part of the project — shaping its structure and delivery on a technical level, while helping me remain focused on the larger narrative that ties it all together.”

— Ian Coss, Host of Forever is a Long Time

“Lacy joined our project and immediately brought the two things we were in desperate search of: Vision and voice. She helped us find our story, stick to it, and get creative in ways that only a talented writer and producer engaging in material wholeheartedly can. But this wasn't a one-time deal. For the duration of the show, Lacy was instrumental in shaping its direction from the tracking booth to the final cut.”

— Will Cadigan, Producer, CNN

“It is very easy to say nice things about Lacy because she is such a dream to work with! Lacy is flexible, sharp and a remarkably generous co-worker. Lacy is excellent at host management and remains kind and respectful under pressure. She's also excellent at problem solving and focusing on what matters most in the production process.”

— Alice Wilder, Freelance Audio Producer

“Lacy is an audio production multitool... a seamless show runner, an insightful editor, a careful manager, and a creative producer. We worked together on many shows at Transmitter, and she was a great collaborator throughout. Her creative flair shone on Rebel Eaters Club. She led Alligator Candy with sensitivity and care. She was nimble and clear, directing the team's quick turns on Election 101 with CNN. Her excellent editing and host-management made TED's Body Stuff a hit from the first season. Lacy's a boon to any team or project. I'd work with her again in a heartbeat.”
