Jason Nidorf "Max" Mutchnick (born November 11, 1965) is an American television producer. He has received an Emmy Award, a People's Choice Award, and several Golden Globe Award nominations.
Mutchnick was born in Chicago, Illinois, and raised in Beverly Hills by his single Jewish mother. He graduated from Emerson College in 1987.
Mutchnick got his start writing for game shows, Good Advice and The Wonder Years. He and David Kohan created Boston Common and Will & Grace. He also produced and wrote for Good Morning, Miami, and produced Twins and Four Kings with Kohan. The title characters of Will & Grace, Will Truman and Grace Adler, are based on Mutchnick and his best friend, Janet. Mutchnick, like Will Truman, is openly gay. He and Kohan have a production company, KoMut Entertainment, which is a combination of their two last names.
On June 7, 2006, Emerson College announced the naming of the Max Mutchnick Campus Center after Mutchnick donated a major gift. The apartment of Will Truman and Grace Adler resided in the Emerson College Library on display until the 2013 completion of Emerson's Los Angeles Campus, where it now resides. The set was donated by Mutchnick.
Mutchnick and Kohan created a half-hour comedy series for CBS called Partners in 2012, but was canceled that same year.
