Dante Di Loreto

Dante Di Loreto executive-produces Glee and also serves as President of Production for Ryan Murphy Television. Prior to joining Ryan Murphy, Di Loreto supervised film development and U.S. theatrical operations for Bill Kenwright Ltd., the U.K.’s largest production company, which was responsible for the London West End productions of Primo, Festen and the revival of The Glass Menagerie, starring Jessica Lange, Christian Slater and Sarah Paulson.

Di Loreto has produced original scripted series for cable and broadcast television as well as a variety of films. His production credits include Pretty/Handsome, the Emmy Award–winning My Lousiana Sky, Temple Grandin, and Die, Mommie, Die!, which took home the Sundance Film Festival’s Special Jury Prize.

Di Loreto’s interest in cinema crosses borders; he helped bring the work of celebrated Cuban filmmakers to world audiences through a film distribution partnership with DDC Films. This endeavor helped foster the development of Viva Cuba, Cuba’s official foreign-language selection for the 78th Academy Awards.

A graduate of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Di Loreto also holds an M.F.A. from the American Film Institute. He lives in Los Angeles.
