I've been around. My first big break, fresh out of UCLA Film School was as Story Editor for "Star Trek - Phase II," the first reinvention of Star Trek, which never got made because the 2 hour pilot for the series became "Star Trek - The Motion Picture." I was associate producer on the movie. Since then I've been in development with a great many companies (including Fox, Paramount, Universal and Allied Artists) and worked with some pretty big names in the industry (Robert Wise, Gene Roddenberry, Robert Watts, Emanuel L. Wolf, Lee Rich, Fred Silverman, David Hemmings and more). Some things got made ("Total Recall," "Sliders" are best known) some didn't (There's a list somewhere.) and many are still in the works. Still going strong, I'm now working on reality and internet projects in addition to dramtic television and features.
