The Manhattan apartment of the late producer and writer Marvin Worth has listed for $1.7 million. Mr. Worth, who produced films like “Malcolm X” and “The Rose” and died in 1998, lived in Los Angeles but used the 1,400-square-foot two-bedroom cooperative apartment on visits to New York. Son Jody Worth, a writer and producer, says he and his siblings are selling because they no longer use the apartment enough to justify keeping it. “It was sort of a family heirloom,” he says.
