Joining Meistrich will be Antonia Ellis, producer of the groundbreaking series SEX & THE CITY. She is currently traveling between Los Angeles and Vancouver, working as a Supervising Producer on the second season of the ABC-TV series, MEN IN TREES, starring Anne Heche.

She also worked as the Co-Producer on David Simon’s six-hour mini-series, THE CORNER, which was awarded the Emmy for Best Mini-Series (2000) and the Peabody Award.
