Real world article
(written from a Production point of view)
Morgan Gendel (born 1952) has written several television episodes for the Star Trek franchise. He is from West Hartford in Connecticut.
His episode "The Inner Light", co-written with Peter Allan Fields, was his first successful sale to the Star Trek franchise, and ended up being the first to earn a Hugo Award for the series since Harlan Ellison's work over twenty years previously. He took the name from a George Harrison penned Beatles song: "'The Inner Light' was the B-side of 'Lady Madonna.' I thought it would be fun to give every Star Trek episode I wrote a title that's from a different, obscure Beatles song. I wanted to call "Starship Mine" 'Revolution,' but they had already used "Evolution". It was a little joke between me and me." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 248)
He has also worked on the hit television series Law & Order as a writer, co-executive producer and executive story editor, and has adapted The Dresden Files for television, and helped develop Spider-Man: The New Animated Series in the early 2000s.
