Multiple Emmy winning writer David Milch got his big break working on Hill Street Blues. His episode, “Trial by Fury” earned the former Yale professor an Emmy. The Writer’s Guild awarded him their top honors that same year. The show awarded him with a promotion to executive producer.
After Hill Street Blues ended, David Milch created Beverly Hills Buntz. His star would shine again in 2004 when he created Deadwood. Currently, he is writing season three of True Detective for HBO.
