About Adam Lapidus
Adam’s television career began when he was sixteen-years-old. He was offered a summer job as a Production Assistant at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles on the television show “Taxi.” This offer came from one of the show’s creators the legendary Jim Brooks.
After graduating from NYU Adam got his “big break” when he sold a pitch and got to write an episode of the show, “The Simpsons,” which was in its fourth season at the time.
This lead to his first network staff job as a writer on the last two seasons of the show, “Full House.” After that he wrote for many shows including the Disney Channel’s, “Phil Of The Future.” This began a fifteen-year career at the Disney Channel which included the shows, “The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody,” “The Suite Life On Deck,” “Jessie,” where he became an Executive Producer, and on the first three seasons of “Bunk’d.” After his stint at Disney he went on to write and produce for the Netflix show, “Team Kaylie.”
