Longtime talent agent and entertainment executive Bob Broder has died at 85.<\/p>\n

Known for co-founding the Broder Kurland Agency, Broder died Tuesday at his Los Angeles home surrounded by his family. He had been diagnosed with cancer.<\/p>\n

Broder was a veteran talent agent whose career spanned more than four decades. <\/p>\n

His clients included sitcom writer and producer Chuck Lorre, television director James Burrows and \u201cModern Family\u201d co-creator Christopher Lloyd. He was also responsible for representing and packaging shows such as \u201cCheers,\u201d \u201cFrasier,\u201d \u201cDharma & Greg\u201d and \u201cTouched by an Angel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under his leadership, the Broder Kurland Agency became a force in television and syndicated shows. The boutique shop also represented so-called below-the-line workers, including script supervisors, costumers and camera operators.<\/p>\n

Broder Kurland was acquired by rival ICM in 2006<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 2012, Broder left ICM Partners to manage the business operations of Lorre\u2019s production company<\/a>. At the time, Lorre said in a statement that he was grateful to have \u201csuch an incredibly wise, experienced and vaguely ruthless guy at the helm of this thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Broder is survived by his wife, Cindy; daughter, Julie; son, Greg; and many extended family members.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
