Meet David Graziano, Law & Order: SUV Runner

David Graziano joined Law & Order: Special Victims Unit starting in the twenty-fourth season shortly after Warren Leight stepped down as executive producer at the end of the current twenty-third season. Unfortunately, within a year of joining the cast, allegations against him for “mistreatment of subordinates, erratic and short-tempered behavior, and making inappropriate and demeaning comments about women and people of color” surfaced from people who had worked with him over the years.

The reason for this series of accusations, according to reports, was the resignation of the show’s script coordinator, Haley Cameron.

According to Haley, the producer “is a very unprofessional, selfish, and immature man.” She added that she has been in the industry for a long time, but she has never witnessed such “pure misogyny against white men.”

Similarly, Amy Hartman, who worked as a script coordinator under David at Coyote, said, “Graz is extremely toxic and I have never quit a job so quickly in my life as I did when I was SC for him. Stay away from him.”

However, David has categorically denied all allegations. “The implication that Mr. Graziano created a hostile, sexist, inappropriate and unprofessional work environment is false,” said David’s spokesperson Alafair Hall. He also claimed that Haley had only “briefly worked” on the show and was “on the verge of being fired” for making unapproved script changes.

Furthermore, the representative denied any additional allegations, stating, “Any statements regarding Mr. Graziano’s race, ethnicity or gender were made in the context of the creation of the plot, characters and dialogue.”

David himself later spoke out, saying he refused to blame his past behavior on the abuse he suffered and learned as a child from a Catholic priest and from his own mother as an excuse for misogyny.

David Graziano Net Worth

David Graziano boasts a net worth of over $3 million as of 2023 — all thanks to his award-winning career as a television writer, producer, and playwright.

Looking back, it was through Acorn, one of his plays, in 1997, that the producer began his journey. Acorn was then performed in Ten Minute Plays at the Actors Theatre of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky, and soon the spotlight was on him.

Since then, he has written for numerous television series and cable series including Jack Ryan (2019), What/If (2019), American Gods (2017), Awake (2011), Terra Nova (2011), Lie To Me (2010), Southland (2009), etc.

Academically, David attended NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. There, he even wrote a play that won the Heideman Prize at the Louisville Actors’ Theatre’s Humana Festival.

Interesting Facts: After Acorn premiered at the Actors Theatre of Louisville in 1997 and 1998, he also directed Drop Your Shorts at the Actors Theatre of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky in 2002.

David Graziano’s wife

Speaking a bit about his romance, David once wrote on his IG, “Today, I feel like a bonsai. What’s the best part about holding scissors and cutting all those skinny branches? The new growth.”

Additionally, in January 2019, he warned others; specifically “George Koutras” because he has a fiancée who is a fighter. “Thank you so much George Koutras—wherever you are—for putting some drama in my face. But honestly, my new girlfriend wants to kick your ass for making me snore,” he said at the time.

As for his children, David has twin daughters. They graduated high school in 2020 and are finally “old enough to drink.” So when they left for college, he wrote on his IG, “You guys are an endless hellhole of corruption, bribery, and disease but I’m actually going to miss you a little.”
