His work has won him 25 Clio Awards, the international TV commercial awards. He has also been a producer on many Broadway shows, most notably: A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder (Tony Award for Best Musical); Love Letters (Revival); The Trip to Bountiful; Ghetto Klown; Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella; Stick Fly; Time Stands Still;  and the musical Cagney.
