She collaborated closely with actors, crew members, and show creators to produce over 300 pieces of content for each episode during the first five seasons of the show from 2009 to 2014. In addition to 'Glee', Gorman produced behind-the-scenes content for the first season of Ryan Murphy's 'Feud' and 'Homeland'.
