Scott Sternberg Productions Opens NYC Office

LOS ANGELES: Coinciding with the production of the original investigative news series On the Case with Paula Zahn for ID: Investigation Discovery, Scott Sternberg Productions has expanded its operations with the opening of a New York office.

Staffed by an initial production team of 20, the NYC office will report to L.A.-based president and founder Scott Sternberg, along with Tracy Whittaker, the VP of creative development, and Patrick Murphy, the senior VP of production. Scott Sternberg Productions plans to open offices in the Netherlands in 2010.

Scott Sternberg Productions’ credits include series for Bravo (Hey Paula), Bio (Shatner’s Raw Nerve), TLC (The Singing Office), GSN (Catch 21), Fox Reality (The Academy), Discovery and AMC (Shootout).

"I am delighted to be opening up an East Coast production facility," said Sternberg. "It’s a tremendous achievement and something we have been building towards over the last 18 months. Kicking off with such a great series as On the Case is a perfect start. This was an important step in continuing to grow our presence in Europe and allowing us to produce more original content for our overseas buyers."
