Linda Ellman

Linda is a three-time Emmy Award-winning veteran of television news and entertainment with more than 25 years experience. She has executive produced, produced, written, directed or consulted on programs for such companies as Paramount Domestic Television, Eyemark Entertainment, Lifetime Television, E! Hearst Entertainment, and 20TH Television. Most recently, Ellman executive produced, produced and directed an Oscar “short-listed” feature documentary (2005), “On Native Soil: The Documentary of the 9/11Commission

Report.” She credits her 13 years at NBC Network News and her many years of local news experience with building the foundation for her success. As a news reporter and producer, Ellman was an eyewitness to history at most of the major news events of the ‘70s, ‘80s and early ‘90s-- from wars and natural disasters to presidential campaigns and conventions-- from Tiananmen Square to the opening of the Berlin Wall. In 1991 Ellman broke into syndicated television as supervising producer of “Entertainment Tonight.” In 1993 Paramount tapped her to executive produce “Hard Copy.” Under her watch ratings quadrupled, and “Time Magazine” named “Hard Copy” one of the

“Ten Best Television Programs of the Year.” Linda has spent the last 15 years producing reality-based programs for her production company, Ellman Entertainment.
