Haven't I written ad nauseum how Hollywood keeps hiring the same people over and over? Case in point: United Artists has named veteran production exec Jeff Kleeman to the post of Executive Vice President, Motion Picture Production. He will report to UA President of Production Don Granger. This is Kleeman's second go-round at UA which he first joined as vp of production in 1993, was promoted to svp of production two years later, and was named exec vp of production in 1997.
Jeff Kleeman Returns To UA As Exec VP
