John A. Litvack

May 25, 1945 - March 21, 2015 John Litvack passed away on Saturday March 21, 2015 at the age of 69. He took great pride in his work as a television executive and producer. Working his way up from the bottom of the production ladder, he would eventually go on to supervise mutliple Emmy award-winning and highly rated night-time dramas for NBC, Disney Television and the WB Network. He is credited with mentoring multiple writers, directors and producers who continue their successes in film and television today. Born and raised in Newton, MA, the son of Frank and Evelyn (Bluestein) Litvack, he remained a Bostonian at heart even after living in Los Angeles for 36 years. He was an avid collector of sports memorabilia and vintage watches, enjoying both pastimes in retirement. He is survived by his two sons, Zachary and his wife Jamie, Cameron and his wife Nicole, their loving mother Murphy, his brother Jim, and his three grandchildren Zoe, Alexis and Samuel who knew him as "Papa John." A gathering of friends and family to honor his life is planned for April 10th in Los Angeles. A private burial will be held in Sharon, MA.
