Disgraced ex-CBS producer Robert “Joe” Halderman tried to keep his daughter covered up in Connecticut on Monday — attempting to block a photographer as she appeared in court over her bust for allegedly stripping down on a public beach.

The elder Halderman — who in 2010 was sentenced to six months in jail for trying to extort former late-night funnyman David Letterman for $2 million — charged at a Post photographer as he walked out of Norwalk Superior Court with his 28-year-old daughter, Anna Lee Halderman, in order to block the shutterbug from snapping photos following her brief court appearance.

Anna, a Norwalk resident, turned herself in to police on an outstanding warrant for her arrest on Aug. 17 and was charged with risk of injury to a minor and breach of peace for allegedly removing her bathing suit at Compo Beach in Westport on July 15.

Police say a caller on the beach told cops that she observed a seemingly intoxicated woman, later identified as Anna, take off the top portion of her bathing suit to tan.

When the witness confronted Anna, she allegedly “became belligerent and proceeded to remove the bottom portion of her bathing suit exposing her buttocks,” the Westport Police Department said.

The caller at the time was with her child, who apparently witnessed the entire incident.

In court Monday, Anna’s lawyer indicated she may be able to get the misdemeanor and felony charges against her tossed by applying to an accelerated rehabilitation program, which allows certain defendants to avoid a conviction and record.

Her next court date is Oct. 30.

Robert, an Emmy-winning producer, tried to shake down Letterman after he found a diary belonging to his ex-girlfriend and longtime Letterman assistant Stephanie Birkitt that proved the two were having an affair.

Both Haldermans refused to comment on the case to reporters outside the courthouse and Anna’s lawyer, Charles Christian Young, also declined to comment.
