Glen A. Larson

Producer

"I’m proudest of the fact that I fell in step with an audience taste-level that I knew how to judge and deliver for consistently. It wasn’t a one-shot, it wasn’t a lucky this or a that. It’s a consistent body of work that has some symmetry to it in terms why it worked and how it worked."
