Dr. Jennifer Ashton signs with CAA

Emmy Award-winning journalist and bestselling author Dr. Jennifer Ashton has signed with CAA.

Ashton most recently served as ABC News’ chief health and medicine correspondent. She also co-hosted ‘GMA3: What You Need to Know’ where she informed viewers about the latest health and medical news.

Ashton was the only medical network correspondent who is also a dual-certified gynecologist specializing in women’s health, and the only physician with a national media platform with a degree in nutrition and obesity medicine.

Ashton recently stepped away from ABC News to focus on her new women’s health and wellness media company, Ajenda. Launched in March with a newsletter, Ajenda was inspired by Ashton’s commitment to addressing and improving women’s health issues, and the need for facts and honesty around menopause and weight management in today’s health conversation.

As founder and CEO, Ashton’s vision for Ajenda includes television production/development for women’s health-focused programming, live online clinics for education and information on symptom relief for perimenopause and menopause, and meal plans for women trying to manage their weight.

She received a Columbia DuPont Award for Excellence in Journalism and received a 2024 John Jay Award from her alma mater for her distinguished work at ABC. Ashton’s advocacy for women’s health has also earned her the American Heart Association’s 2023 Women Changing the World Award.

Ashton is also the author of several books, including ‘The Body Scoop for Girls’, ‘The Self Care Solution’ and ‘The New Normal’.

Ashton is still represented by Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis.
