JACK ORMAN, executive producer / writer

Jack Orman received his first offer as a freelance writer for hire on an episode of “JAG,” and shortly thereafter was hired as a staff writer. Within half a season, Paramount Television made him a co-producer on the show. The following year, Orman was lured away from “JAG,” which had become a hit for CBS, to become a writer/producer on “ER.” Three years later, he took the reins as the show’s executive producer/showrunner and shepherded “ER’s” resurgence for the next three years.

During his tenure on “ER,” Orman and his fellow producers received three Emmy Award nominations, four People’s Choice Awards and many other industry commendations. He wrote the episode “All in the Family,” which received the highest ratings for a television episode since the “Seinfeld” series finale and was included in The Hollywood Reporter’s list of the Top 10 Highest Rated Shows of the Decade. Orman also directed several episodes of “ER,” including the celebrated 200th episode, “When Day Meets Night,” and “The Letter.”

Orman was active in television development for several years, and created/executive produced the Rhode Island based television series, “Waterfront.” He wrote and produced on the first season of “Men of a Certain Age,” which received a Peabody Award.

Orman grew up in Paradise Valley, Arizona, earned his bachelor’s in communications (film) from Loyola Marymount University and produced an international documentary throughout Asia before earning a master of fine arts from USC’s Peter Stark Producing Program. He lives in Studio City, California with his wife, Lisa, and their children.

Schlamme has won nine Emmy Awards, three DGA Awards and two Peabody Awards, among others. His feature film directing credits include “So I Married an Axe Murderer,” “You So Crazy” and “Miss Firecracker.” Telefilm credits include “Kingfish: A Story of Huey P.
