He died suddenly on Wednesday
NCIS executive producer and showrunner Gary Glasberg has died. He was 50.
Glasberg, who also created the NCIS spin-off NCIS: New Orleans, died Wednesday in his sleep in Los Angeles, according to reports. The cause of death was not immediately released. A native of New York City, Glasberg acted as an executive producer on shows including Bones, Crossing Jordan and The Mentalist. He joined NCIS in 2009 as an executive producer and writer, and was promoted to showrunner in 2011.
"Gary was our rock, our cheerleader, our team captain. He inspired us with his leadership, his creative instincts and keen insight," the NCIS cast and crew said in a statement. "NCIS will not be the same without him, and each of us will miss his smiling face and unwavering humor, which lifted us every day."
