Hi jonnibean,
Thank you for a very interesting question.
I performed an extensive search and it appears Kevin "Moochie"
Corcoran is not the same Kevin Corcoran you saw listed as a Producer
in "Simon & Simon - all his credits are listed at the IMBD Database.
In fact, I couldn't find any Kevin Corcoran listed at TV Tome's
website for Simon and Simon.
In reference to Simon and Simon please scroll to Show Crew for list of Producers

=========
However, I have found information on what Kevin "Moochie" Cocoran has
been doing, and 2 photos.
Chris Waters is his given name and he is AKA Disney child actor Kevin
Corcoran AKA Moochie.

Kevin "Moochie" Corcoran
Born in Santa Monica, California
on June 10, 1949
=========
Kevin "Moochie" Corcoran by Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
http://movies2.nytimes.com/gst/movies/filmography.html?p_id=14947&mod=bio
Actor/Associate Producer: Born June 10, 1949 - Santa Monica, Los Angeles, CA
"One of seven children of MGM studio policeman Bill Corcoran, Kevin
Corcoran was five years old when he followed the lead of his older
siblings, Bill Jr., Noreen, Donna, and Hugh, by becoming an actor.
Corcoran's first film appearance, in the company of his sisters,
Noreen and Donna, was as one of Quaker farmer Ernest Borgnine's
children in Violent Saturday. In 1957, he was featured in Adventures
in Dairyland, a serialized component of Walt Disney's daily TVer The
Mickey Mouse Club. Corcoran's character name was Moochie, a tag that
stuck when he was signed to a Disney contract. One of the busiest
child actors of the late '50s, Corcoran was co-starred in such Disney
theatrical features as Old Yeller (1957), The Shaggy Dog (1960),
Pollyanna (1960), and Savage Sam (1963). He also played the title role
in 1960's Toby Tyler, and was top-billed in the Disney TV projects
Moochie of the Little League (1959), Moochie of Pop Warner Football
(1961), and Johnny Shiloh (1963). After outgrowing his natural
cuteness, Corcoran found roles harder to come by, and called it quits
after a minor role in Blue (1968). Upon attaining adulthood, Corcoran
returned to Disney as an associate producer, working on such films as
Superdad (1977) and Pete's Dragon (1977). Kevin Corcoran's brother,
Brian, and sister, Kerry, also showed up in several films and TV
programs of the 1950s and 1960s."
