Victor De Jesus

Born and raised in New York City, I began my career in film and television working for director Spike Lee as an in-house production assistant. I eventually went on to manage several of Spike’s music videos and commercials. That experience of collaborating with music artists, led me to a stint in the Artist Development Department at Jive Records. After a few years at Jive, I returned to the film industry where I production managed several indie films for directors Darnell Martin, Jim Jarmusch, Jonathan Demme and Nancy Savoka; just to name a few. I then decided to try my hand at writing, specifically for television, and moved to Los Angeles. I applied to the NHMC’s Television Writers Program and upon completion I was staffed on NBC’s Third Watch for three seasons. I was also in the writers room for such shows as Criminal Minds, SMILF and Brujas. Most recently I’ve developed original material with Ed Bernero, Elisabeth Rohm and Sam Sokolow.
