Katie Geminder, MySpace's SVP of User Experience and Design who was brought on board last summer, is leaving the company at the end of the week. Her departure doesn't come as a big surprise — Geminder was invited to join the company by recently ousted CEO Owen Van Natta, who had previously worked with her at Amazon and Facebook. While at MySpace Geminder has been reporting to Chief Product Officer Jason Hirschhorn (who was promoted to co-President after Van Natta's firing).
MySpace confirmed on background that Geminder is transitioning out of her role with the company, and that VP Product Mike Macadaan will be leading the user experience and design teams going forward. Hopefully they'll be making major changes soon, because MySpace badly needs them (a recent parody video hints that a redesign is under way).
