Jonathan Burrows began his professional career as an assistant stage director at the New York City Opera in 1966 with Placido Domingo in CARMEN and MADAMA BUTTERFLY, Beverly Sills in THE TALES OF HOFFMAN & many more. Two years later he was producing theatre in New York, presenting three off-Broadway plays (Athol Fugard’s HELLO & GOODBYE directed by George C. Scott, starring Martin Sheen & Coleen Dewhurst, CONTRIBUTIONS starring Claudia McNeil, the national tour of THE MAD SHOW) and FIRE on Broadway (1969), prior to turning his attention to the film industry. He started as an assistant director for David Lean on RYAN’S DAUGHTER (MGM, 1970), then to the executive training program at Columbia Pictures, and subsequently as a Production Executive and in other capacities on seventeen more major films including A DELICATE BALANCE (Katharine Hepburn), THE ICEMAN COMETH (Lee Marvin, Jeff Bridges), RHINOCEROS (Zero Mostel), THE HOMECOMING (Ian Holm), THE MAN IN THE GLASS BOOTH (Maximilian Schell), with producer credits on TEXASVILLE (Columbia, 1990) and FLETCH (Universal, 1984).

He now divides his schedule between Los Angeles and New York City, where he is also active in the family real estate business. Among his leisure time pursuits are golf and polo, which he plays not only at the Santa Barbara Polo Club but internationally as well. He is also an instrument rated multi-engine private pilot and regularly flies several hours a week. He and his wife Annie are collectors of modern and contemporary art and are the parents of fifteen year old Zane Lowell Burrows and Lili Grace Burrows, who is eleven.

Jonathan is currently preparing a Broadway production of Cole Porter’s 1953 musical “CAN-CAN” for the 2016-2017 season. He discovered this new production of “CAN-CAN” at the Pasadena Playhouse several years ago and presented a showcase version of it in NYC in July 2013. In October 2014 it played four weeks as a pre-Broadway tryout at Paper Mill Playhouse, Millburn N.J., a NY regional theater and is now waiting for an available Broadway theater.
