R.I.P.: David Mills (1961–2010)
This is tragic:
An HBO spokesman says David Mills, a veteran television writer who worked on “ER” and “The Wire,” has died in New Orleans.
HBO spokesman Diego Aldana says Mills died Tuesday night but didn’t know the cause of death.
Mills also wrote for “The Corner” and “Homicide: Life on the Street” among other shows.
He is co-writer and co-executive producer of the new HBO series “Treme.”
And sadly ironic, “Treme” premieres in less than 2 weeks.
“The Wire” and “Homicide” are possibly the two best 1-hour TV dramas ever.
In honor of David Mills, here is a video “Making Treme”:
Godspeed, David.
