An ambitious idea turned reality when industry vets Jesse Ignjatovic and Evan Prager launched a unique production company in 2007 — Den of Thieves
Today, Den of Thieves boasts some of the entertainment industry’s most elite production credits. Most notable is DOT’s involvement in producing the MTV Video Music Awards for the past fifteen consecutive years. DOT is also the producing force behind some of the most recognizable televised and streamed shows and events including: Judge Steve Harvey, the People’s Choice Awards, Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart, Taylor Swift: Reputation Stadium Tour and Ariana Grande: Excuse Me I love You… as well as Miley Cyrus New Year's Eve Party and Live From E! on the Red Carpet for the Oscars, Emmys, Grammys and more.
Working in tandem with Jesse and Evan are Executive Producers Barb Bialkowski, Jordan Barrow, and Jared Morell. Bialkowski is an integral part of DOT’s events and specials strategy, both as a development executive and veteran showrunner. She has produced a wide variety of projects including the MTV Video Music Awards, NBC’s People’s Choice Awards & People’s Choice Country Awards, Brené Brown: Atlas Of The Heart for HBO Max, Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards, Miley Cyrus presents Stand By You, MTV Movie & TV Awards, and the multi-network television special Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Relief.
