The prolific TV creator — described as a"star" early in his career by Steven Bochco — went on to success with 'NYPD Blue' and 'Deadwood' before getting into trouble with the IRS and, more recently, revealing that he has Alzheimer's.. Before that, he'd primarily been an academic.
script assignment was his exit visa from academia. "I knew that you don't get a lot of chances," Milch told thein 1998. "The first script I turned in had a lot of problems because I had never seen a script, but I listened pretty hard." That third-season episode, "Trial by Fury," went on to win an Emmy, a WGA award and a Humanitas prize that paid him $15,000. "David's a star," said lateco-creator Steven Bochco in 1994.
