Robert Greenhut

Robert Greenhut (Bob) (born December 18, 1942) is an American film producer.

Born in New York City, Greenhut studied music at the University of Miami. He began his film career as a production assistant on Arthur Hiller's 1967 comedy "The Tiger Makes Out". During the next seven years, he worked in various production capacities, rising through the ranks to become a production manager, assistant director, and associate producer. Greenhut served in that last capacity on "The Front", a 1976 Hollywood blacklist drama starring Woody Allen. It was the first of several collaborations with the writer/director. Greenhut served as the executive producer and production manager of "Annie Hall" and went on to produce or executive produce every Allen-directed film through the period musical comedy "Everyone Says I Love You" in 1996.

Greenhut also has worked extensively with Mike Nichols on "Heartburn" (1986), "Working Girl" (1988), "Postcards from the Edge" (1990), "Regarding Henry" (1991), and "Wolf" (1994). His additional credits include Milos Forman's "Hair" (1979), "Arthur" (1981), Martin Scorsese's "The King of Comedy" (1983), and Penny Marshall's "Big" (1988), "A League of Their Own" (1992) and "Renaissance Man" (1994).

Greenhut received a 1989 Crystal Apple Award from the NYC Mayor's Film Office for his contribution to the city's film industry. That same year, he was honored with the Eastman Kodak Award for lifetime achievement.
