Adam F. Goldberg

“Basically, I had a show prior, and the show was cancelled, and I was trying to figure out what to do, and, Doug [is my producer], -- this was years ago, like seven years ago, and Doug said it's time we take out your family show. So, it was really Doug's idea, and I had kids, I was now a parent, I had perspective, and that was really it. ”

–Adam F. Goldberg on how The Goldbergs was formed.

Adam Frederick Goldberg (born April 2, 1976) is an American television and film producer and writer, best known as the creator and showrunner of the television series Breaking In and The Goldbergs, which is a biopic on his own childhood.
