Marc Scott Zicrees landmark book The Twilight Zone Companion has been credited with creating the modern genre of books on TV series and inspiring a generation of series creators and filmmakers who read the work as teenagers and went on to become writers. The Companion was an instant bestseller (over a half million copies to date) and named in 2006 by the NY Times as one of the ten science fiction books for the ages, the only non-fiction book on the list.
Zicree has a degree in painting, sculpture and graphic arts from UCLA, and was a highly regarded painter and photographer, exhibiting in notable galleries as well as having his work represented in numerous national magazines, including OMNI. In addition, he is an alumnus of the Clarion Writers Workshop, the most esteemed science fiction writing workshop in the country.
Following college, Zicree went on to a successful career as a writer-producer in film and TV, selling over 100 teleplays, screenplays and pilots to every major studio and network, including landmark stories for such shows as Star Trek Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Friday the 13th the Series, Twilight Zone, Babylon 5, Beauty and the beast, Forever Knight, Sliders, He-Man, and the Smurfs. He has also written extensively about his unusual family in features and TV pilots for CBS, NBC and Showtime.
