Edward Anhalt

In the early 1970s, Anhalt returned to the small screen, earning a well-deserved Emmy nomination for the acclaimed ABC miniseries "QB VII" (1974). Three years later, he scripted the Frank Sinatra vehicle "Contract on Cherry Street" (NBC) and contributed to the small screen remake of "Madame X" (NBC, 1981) and the biblically inspired "The Day Christ Died" (CBS, 1982). Anhalt was also the guiding force behind the lavish 1985 NBC miniseries "Peter the Great."
