The Bears hired Darby Dunnagan as their video operations director Wednesday, making her the first woman to ever hold the title inside Halas Hall and the highest-ranking female across all video departments league-wide.
Dunnagan had served as the Northwestern football team’s player development director. When the Wildcats hired her as video coordinator in July 2013, she became the first woman to hold that role for a power conference football program. She supervised the Wildcats’ video staff and assisted in shooting and editing special events and player features. Two years ago, she was named Big Ten Video Coordinator of the Year.
