BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--Feb. 1, 2000

Bob Sanitsky will re-join International Creative Management, where he formerly spent more than six years as an agent and senior television executive, as Executive Vice President and Head of Worldwide Television.

The announcement, which becomes effective Feb. 1, 2000, was made jointly today by Nancy Josephson, and Ed Limato, Co-Presidents of ICM.

Mr. Sanitsky has spent the past two years as President and Chief Executive Officer of PolyGram Television, a division he started and which has recently been brought under the aegis of Universal Television. While at PolyGram, Mr. Sanitsky oversaw all television development, production of original series and distribution of the PolyGram and Grammercy libraries, including pay-per-view, network, syndication and cable outlets.

He oversaw the development and production of four new shows for PolyGram Television. Among these are 22 hours of &uot;Total Recall,&uot; which premiered last year on Showtime and begins syndication later this month; &uot;Motown Live,&uot; an R& music variety show currently in its second season of syndication; and a Monday-through-Saturday strip, &uot;Blind Date,&uot; which is emerging as a hit of the syndication season. Among his successful television movies is the CBS telefilm &uot;Anya's Bell.&uot;

&uot;It is a tremendous pleasure to welcome Bob back to ICM, where he made so many contributions in the past,&uot; said Ms. Josephson. &uot;While he was here previously, he demonstrated extraordinary ability as an agent and packager. Now, that has been combined with hands-on creative and management experience that makes Bob a unique asset in the world of television. I believe he will help us accomplish great things.&uot;

Stated Jeffrey Berg, Chairman of ICM, &uot;Bob was able to start and sustain a significant television venture in a highly competitive market; his many significant insights into the changing landscape of television will maximize future opportunities for our clients. We are pleased to have him back at ICM.&uot;
