Following stints at Imagine Television and CBS, Shanna Nussbaum cofounded Gaslight Pictures in 1997 and produced several successful projects, including the Emmy®-nominated Cheaters for HBO and Living with the Dead, CBS's highest-rated miniseries for the 2002-03 season, starring Ted Danson, Mary Steenburgen and Queen Latifah.
