Israeli producer Dana Eden, co-creator of the Emmy-winning Tehran, died suddenly in Greece this week, found in a hotel in Athens at age 52.
Greek police indicated initial indications suggested she had taken her own life, with no suspicion of foul play.
KAN, Israel's public broadcaster, described Eden as a leading figure in Israeli television whose work helped bring the country's stories to international stages.
Donna and Shula Productions, Eden's company, said rumors of a criminal or politically motivated death were false and asked for privacy for her family and colleagues.
Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar called the news deeply sad and praised Eden's impact and courage in Israeli creation.
Eden was in Athens for the filming of Tehran's fourth season, marking a difficult moment for the Israeli TV community as colleagues mourn.
Authorities have not released a formal cause of death and an official investigation is ongoing.
