Scott Hornbacher
Scott Hornbacher is a four-time Emmy-winning producing director known for his work on the landmark television series Mad Men and The Sopranos.

As Executive Producer of Mad Men, Hornbacher has received over 20 industry awards, including three Producers Guild Awards. In addition to his producing role, Scott directed nine episodes of Mad Men, including the iconic acid trip episode "Far Away Places" and the season-opening episodes "The Doorway (Parts 1 & 2)," "Time Zones," and "Severance."

Scott also served as Executive Producer and Producing Director for Amazon's The Last Tycoon, based on F. Scott Fitzgerald's unfinished final novel. The series featured a stellar cast, including Matt Bomer, Kelsey Grammer, Lily Collins, Dominique McElligott, and Rosemarie DeWitt. He later collaborated again with The Last Tycoon showrunner Billy Ray, serving as Consulting Producer on Showtime's limited series The Comey Rule, based on James Comey's book A Higher Loyalty.

His additional directing credits include "YumTime," an episode of Showtime's drama series Billions (starring Paul Giamatti, Damian Lewis, Maggie Siff, and Malin Akerman), and an episode of the CBS drama Conviction (starring Hayley Atwell).

Most recently, Scott completed Season 1 as Executive Producer and Producing Director of the 1990 set Netflix drama series The Corps. Based on Greg Cope White's memoir The Pink Marine, The Corps follows a bullied gay high school student who impulsively joins the Marine Corps alongside his straight best friend-a perilous decision at a time when being openly gay in the military carried severe consequences.
