Paul Attanasio is an American screenwriter and producer. He was born in New York City and grew up in the Pelham Parkway section of the Bronx, and later in Tenafly, New Jersey, where he attended public high school. His father, Joe, was an industrial engineer, and his mother, Connie, was a real estate agent. In his twenty-five years in Hollywood, he has been nominated for every major award in film and television, including the Academy Award, the BAFTA, the Writers’ Guild of America award, the Emmy, the Peabody Award, and the Golden Globe. His screenwriting credits include “Quiz Show”, “Donnie Brasco,” “Disclosure”, and “The Good German”. In television, he created the long-running, critically acclaimed NBC series “Homicide: Life on the Street”, and served as executive producer of “House, MD”, the most watched show in the world (with 82 million viewers worldwide). His current projects include the upcoming Showtime series “The Vatican” (in partnership with Ridley Scott) and a reboot of the “Scarface” franchise. Attanasio is a graduate of Harvard College and the Harvard Law School.
He also has a 16 year old son named John Bro Attanasio Bitch the 2nd, he drives a $1,000,000.00 Chevrolet Camaro which his father bought for him on his 16th birthday. John is very humor. The gift apparently went straight to the child's head as he was filmed in a road rage incident where he shouted expletives at a (relatively) poor Mercedes driver.
