London – FremantleMedia Enterprises (FME) has appointed a new sales person to its growing Kids & Family Entertainment Division. Joss Duffield has been named VP Distribution & Sales, EMEA, Kids & Family Entertainment. She will be based in London reporting to Sander Schwartz, President of Kids & Family Entertainment.
