Comcast is adding a familiar name to its corporate board of directors.

The cable giant and NBCUniversal owner is bringing on Wonya Lucas, the former CEO of Hallmark Media and TV One, as a board member. The company disclosed the addition of Lucas in a securities filing, noting that she will be considered an independent director.

Lucas, a veteran TV executive who worked at CNN and The Weather Channel before running TV One and later Hallmark, stepped down as CEO of Hallmark parent company Crown Media Holdings last year. During her tenure at Hallmark, Lucas focused on building more projects with diverse storylines, characters and themes.

She is also the niece of baseball legend Hank Aaron, an experience that she wrote about in a column for The Hollywood Reporter. Lucas also serves as a director for Atlanta Braves Holdings, the owner of the Atlanta Braves, the team with which Aaron spent much of his career.

Comcast, of course, includes NBCUniversal as well as Comcast cable. The company is controlled by the Roberts family, led by CEO Brian Roberts.
