CSI: NEW YORK

Jonathan Littman - Exec Producer

A New Jersey native and graduate of Vassar College (class of ’85), Jonathan Littman began his career in entertainment on Broadway, working as both a stage manager and casting director while still in college. After college, Littman moved from theatre to television, starting at ABC in Children’s and Late Night Programming, which led to his first producing job as a segment producer for Day’s End, a late night news show that followed Nightline.

Moving to California in 1989, Littman joined NBC as Director of Daytime Programs, overseeing game shows and daytime dramas such as Concentration and Santa Barbara. In 1991 Littman left NBC for the still fledgling Fox network and spent the next six years working in both Current Programming and Drama Development, where he was involved in the development and day-to-day management of such hits as Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place and The X-Files.

In 1997 Littman left Fox to create and run a television division for film producer Jerry Bruckheimer. As President of Jerry Bruckheimer Television, Littman has been responsible for the development of, and executive produces, all Bruckheimer series. JBTV is scheduled to have a record breaking 10 series on the air: CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, Without a Trace, Cold Case, the Emmy award winning The Amazing Race and four new shows premiering this fall: E-Ring, Close to Home, Just Legal and the comedy Modern Men.
