Who is Harry Bring?
The Evolution season two finale credits open with a title card tribute that reads, “In Loving Memory Of Harry Bring.” Between 2011 and 2020, he produced television shows and was an executive producer on Criminal Minds, receiving credit on fewer than 200 episodes.
It’s heart-warming to see him getting remembered in the most recent season since he is best known for his work on the show. However, it’s not limited to Criminal Minds. He also served as a producer of On Chaos, Army Wives, Head Cases, North Shore, The Lyon’s Den, and The X-Files. A season 15 episode of Criminal Minds was produced by Harry.

Reason of death
Tragically, on February 18, 2021, Harry lost his fight with cancer. He was 77 when he passed away, and his son Brad Bring posted a notice on Facebook at the time:
“Today, at the age of 77, we lost a legend. Harry Bring passed away after a life filled with joy and adversity, devotion to family and friends, and love for Rhonda Leeds-Bring. For years, he battled cancer and beat it. That gave him a little more time to enjoy USC, the SF Giants, the Rams, and his grandchildren. He embodied the Fight ON attitude of the Trojans,” Brad mentioned.
According to Deadline, Harry was a co-executive producer on Criminal Minds until he was promoted to executive producer in 2017.
