The most famous of his series remains Hill Street Blues which portrays the life of a neighborhood police station in a large city that was never clearly named.<\/p>\n<p>Bochco was born to a Jewish family in New York City, the son of Mimi, a painter, and Rudolph Bochco, a concert violinist. He was educated in Manhattan at the High School of Music and Art. His elder sister is actress Joanna Frank.<\/p>\n<p>In 1961, he enrolled at the Carnegie Institute of Technology (after merging with the Mellon Institute in 1967, now known as Carnegie Mellon University) in Pittsburgh to study playwriting and theater. He graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Theater in 1966, having also had an MCA Writing Fellowship.<\/p>\n<p>Bochco went to work for Universal Pictures as a writer and then story editor on <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2JDlCxs\"><em>Ironside<\/em><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Kr8HQy\"><em>Columbo<\/em><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2KmRozM\"><em>McMillan &amp; Wife<\/em><\/a>, and the short-lived Lorne Greene and Ben Murphy series, Griff, as well as <em>Delvecchio<\/em> and <em>The Invisible Man<\/em>.<\/p><div id=\"morty-520608182\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>He wrote the story and teleplay for <em>Columbo: Murder by the book<\/em> (1971), and the teleplays for several other episodes. He wrote the screenplay for the 1968 film <em>The Counterfeit Killer<\/em> and worked on <em>Silent Running<\/em> (1972) and <em>Double Indemnity<\/em> (1973).<\/p>\n<p>He left Universal in 1978 to go to MTM Enterprises where he had greater scope for producing. His first effort there was the short-lived CBS police drama Paris, notable as the first series on which James Earl Jones played a lead role.<\/p>\n<p>He achieved major success for NBC with the police drama <em>Hill Street Blues<\/em>. It ran from 1981-87 and Bochco was credited as co-creator and also wrote and produced. The series also garnered considerable critical acclaim and many awards and was nominated for a total of 98 Emmy Awards throughout its run. Bochco was fired from MTM in 1985 following the failure of <em>Bay City Blues<\/em> (1983).<\/p>\n<p>Bochco moved to 20th Century Fox where he co-created and produced <em>L.A. Law<\/em> (1986\u201394) which aired on NBC. This series was also widely acclaimed and a regular award winner.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Hooperman-Season-1-John-Ritter\/dp\/B01N90AT92\/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1525122472&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=Hooperman&amp;linkCode=li2&amp;tag=medfordtrails-20&amp;linkId=a7ea679895f567b3ba0a1883a1193732\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B01N90AT92&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=medfordtrails-20\" alt=\"\" width=\"114\" height=\"160\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"https:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=medfordtrails-20&amp;l=li2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B01N90AT92\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/>In 1987, Bochco co-created the half-hour dramedy <em>Hooperman<\/em> which starred John Ritter but was canceled after two seasons, despite Bochco offering to take over direct day-to-day control of a third season. <em>Hooperman<\/em> was part of a lucrative deal with ABC in 1987 to create and produce ten new television series, which prompted Bochco to form Steven Bochco Productions. From this deal came <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Kqq03T\"><em>Doogie Howser, M.D<\/em><\/a>. (1989\u201393) and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2raly0x\"><em>Cop Rock<\/em><\/a> (1990). The latter combined straight police drama with live-action Broadway singing and dancing and was one of his highest-profile failures.

Photo credit: Ron Batzdorff. (1995) ABC TV Photo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After a lull, Bochco co-created <em>NYPD Blue<\/em> (1993\u20132005) with David Milch. Initially controversial at the time, the series was created with the express intention of changing the nature of network one-hour drama to compete with the more adult fare broadcast on cable networks. Other projects in this period that failed to take off include Murder One (1995\u201397), <em>Brooklyn South<\/em> (1997), <em>City of Angels<\/em> (2000), <em>Philly<\/em> (2001), and <em>Over There<\/em> (2005). All five shows failed to match Bochco&#8217;s earlier success though <em>Murder One<\/em> and <em>Over There<\/em> garnered critical praise.<\/p>\n<p>In 2005, Bochco took charge of <em>Commander in Chief<\/em> (2005\u201306) which was the creation of Rod Lurie and brought in a new writing team. However, in spring 2006, he left the show because of conflicts with ABC, and shortly afterward the program was canceled. Bochco described his experience on the show as &#8220;horrible&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In 2006 Bochco produced a pilot ABC show, <em>Hollis &amp; Rae<\/em>, and was reported at the same time to be developing a baseball drama and another legal drama for ABC in partnership with Chris Gerolmo.<\/p>\n<p>It was announced in March 2007 that he has taken his first steps into internet TV with the 44-episode <em>Cafe Confidential<\/em>, each episode being 60-seconds of unscripted &#8220;confessions&#8221; by members of the public. Yet another legal drama entitled <em>Raising the Bar<\/em> was produced for TNT, this time in partnership with David Feige, although it was cancelled in December 2009 during the second season.<\/p>\n<p>According to an interview with Bochco published in September 2007, he is now winding down his involvement with network television, feeling that his tastes and current fashions in TV drama no longer coincide. &#8220;The network executives stay the same age and I keep getting older and it creates a different kind of relationship. When I was doing my stuff at NBC with Brandon (Tartikoff) and <em>Hill Street<\/em>, we were contemporaries,&#8221; says Bochco. &#8220;When I sit down (now), they&#8217;re sitting in a room with someone who&#8217;s old enough to be their father and I&#8217;m not sure they want to sit in a room with their fathers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2008, Bochco argued that the new home for quality prime time drama is cable, where &#8220;the atmosphere is far friendlier and the creative environment more conducive to doing original work&#8221;, and that &#8220;most of what&#8217;s passing for primetime drama these days isn&#8217;t very good&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to <em>Hill Street <\/em>Blues it was rare for American straight drama series to have story arcs, i.e. several stories running over many episodes (with the exception of prime time soap operas such as <em>Dallas<\/em>). It was also rare to have a large regular cast. The structure of the modern &#8220;ensemble&#8221; television drama can be traced to Bochco, who many regard as having changed the &#8220;language&#8221; of television drama.<\/p>\n<p>From 2014 to its cancellation in 2016, he wrote and executive produced Murder in the First, a series drama which he co-created with Eric Lodal.<\/p>\n<h2>Personal life<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3330\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3330\" style=\"width: 233px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3330 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/steven-bochco-wife-barbara-bosson-peabody-award-1982-nbc-tv-photo-233x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"233\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/steven-bochco-wife-barbara-bosson-peabody-award-1982-nbc-tv-photo-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/steven-bochco-wife-barbara-bosson-peabody-award-1982-nbc-tv-photo-260x335.jpg 260w, https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/steven-bochco-wife-barbara-bosson-peabody-award-1982-nbc-tv-photo-160x206.jpg 160w, https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/steven-bochco-wife-barbara-bosson-peabody-award-1982-nbc-tv-photo.jpg 490w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 233px) 100vw, 233px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3330\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Steven Bochco, executive producer and co-creator of NBC-TV&#8217;s &#8220;Hill Street Blues,&#8221; and his wife Barbara Bosson, who plays Fay Furillo in the critically hailed Thursday night series (10:00PM ET) proudly display the medallion and citation attesting to the program&#8217;s winning the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award at a ceremony that took place May 5, 1982 in New York.
