Liebman and his co-CEO, Cynthia Pett, ushered in a new era for Brillstein in September when the venerable management firm/prodco, founded by the late Bernie Brillstein in 1969, was acquired by Wasserman, the 21-year-old sports and music management company headed by Casey Wasserman, grandson of legendary MCA chief Lew Wasserman. Other than that, it was business as usual for Liebman, executive producer of the docuseries “Get Gotti,” which became the No. 1 show on Netflix in 14 countries upon its release in October 2023. This year, he produced the Apple original podcast “Operation: Tradebom,” exploring the events surrounding the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, and closed a first-look deal with Paramount Television Studios via its Brillstein Creative Partners (BCP) division to co-develop and co-produce scripted series.
