A native of Yonkers, New York and graduate of New York University, Rosenstock started his career in the heyday of Garry Marshall and Paramount TV’s reign of pop hits: his 70’s writing credits include episodes of Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, and the Robin Williams’ career-starter Mork and Mindy. In the 80’s, Rosenstock branched into producing as well as writing with series Newhart, Oh Madeline and The Flamingo Kid. As a creative consultant, he mixed in pilot development with his writing and producing on Newhart, Partners, Friends, Will & Grace, The John Larroquette Show, The King of Queens, Kitchen Confidential, and most recently Family Guy.
Some additional hi-lights of his career include his creation and executive production of The Marshall Chronicles (1990), Tea Leoni’s career-launching Flying Blind (1992) and his Emmy Award as co-executive producer of Arrested Development, for which he also received a Writer's Guild Award nomination. Mr. Rosenstock is currently developing projects for both 20th Century Fox Television and Touchstone Television.
