Clare McGrane
Senior Producer
About
Clare is the senior producer and co-host of Control F, a podcast about the data that shapes our daily lives. Clare and co-host Teo Popescu answer big questions about how our world works — from your personal finances to the morning weather report — by digging though data. Clare is also the show's senior producer, managing Control F's production schedule and listener engagement.
Prior to working on Control F, Clare developed and produce the region's premier news podcast, Seattle Now, and KUOW's food podcast, Seattle Eats. Her work on the shows spanned a variety of roles and topics over five years, including extensive coverage the Covid pandemic, stories of foraging for food in the Pacific Northwest, and the drama behind e-book offerings at libraries. Before joining KUOW in 2018, Clare covered the health sciences beat at GeekWire, where she also produced the outlet's podcasts.
Clare grew up between the Seattle area and her family home in Ayrshire, Scotland. She graduated from the University of Washington in 2016 with a B.A. in Creative Writing and Journalism. Outside of work, Clare spends her time crocheting, bouldering, and playing a kind-hearted (if not very smart) Rider of Rohan in her Lord of the Rings roleplaying game campaign.
