Creator Context
Summary
An award-winning veteran showrunner and writer. While his work historically introduced groundbreaking racial and queer representation in dramas like "Oz", and he has lobbied for New York television diversity tax credits, his personal views are grounded in traditional humanism, redemption, and faith rather than modern representation-first identity politics.
