John was synonymous with brilliant set design whether television or live theater. He designed our PETER PAN starring Cathy Rigby which after A&E Television shot and aired it won John an EMMY AWARD! John also designed our National tour of CAMELOT staring Michael York and Lou Diamond Phillips as well as over 25 other first rate sets for McCoy Rigby and La Mirada. He was loved and respected by ALL who worked with and for him. Our last collaboration with John was A FEW GOOD MEN just this last November which was once again, perfectly designed. Cathy and I had John to the house for last Christmas dinner which was a joy and honor for all in attendance. We shared much together especially the highs and lows of this business, but with John, there was always kindness towards all. We love you John. We honor the consummate artist you were. We adore you my dear friend. Now create one of your masterpieces for the universe. -Tom McCoy, McCoy Rigby Entertainment

John Iacovelli, the Emmy-winning prolific scenic designer for stage and screen and collaborator for L.A. theater artists for many decades, died Friday.
