With his deal with Warner Bros. TV (TWX) ending in June of 2007, it didn't take long for one of Warner's competitors to grab Hank Steinberg. Steinberg is currently creator and executive producer of "Without a Trace."
He signed a three deal that is said to be one of the most lucrative for project development, reaching into the high seven-figures. NBC Universal (GE) is the company behind the deal which has been waiting for several years for the first 
opportunity to bring Steinberg on board.
NBC Universal TV Studio president Angela Bromstad said , "Now we're so happy to have the opportunity to sit down with him and talk about our respective goals and to have this creative marriage," she said. "We can't wait to start developing with him."

Steinberg has also worked with NBC Entertainment president Kevin Reilly when he wrote the made-for-TV film "RFK." Reilly commented: "I was really impressed with his creativity and instincts. Since then, he has consistently demonstrated that his talents result in quality television, and we look forward to a fruitful partnership with Hank at NBC."
While he is working with NBC Universal, he will continue to work as executive producer on "Trace."
