Howard Gordon (born March 31, 1961) is an American television writer and producer. He is well known for his work on the Fox action series ''24'' alongside the Showtime thriller ''Homeland'', which he co-developed with Alex Gansa and Gideon Raff and the FX political drama ''Tyrant'', which he co-developed with Craig Wright. He also produced the critically acclaimed but short lived NBC science fiction thriller ''Awake''. ==Life and career== Gordon was born in Queens, New York City and graduated from Roslyn High School. He grew up in a Jewish family.〔http://tabletmag.com/jewish-arts-and-culture/146747/homeland-howard-gordon〕 After graduating from Princeton in 1984, Gordon came to Los Angeles with fellow filmmaker Alex Gansa to pursue a career in writing for television. Both broke into the industry with single episodes of ABC's ''Spenser: For Hire''. Their ''Spenser'' work turned industry heads, and the pair joined the Emmy-nominated series ''Beauty and the Beast'' as staff writers, and were later named producers. In 1990, the Gansa-Gordon team was signed to a two-year deal with Witt-Thomas Productions, during which they produced several pilots. One was an ABC project called ''Country Estates'', which caught the attention of famed producer Chris Carter. Soon after, Carter invited Gordon and Gansa to join ''The X-Files'' as supervising producers; Gordon wrote or co-wrote several scripts each season, before departing from the series in 1997 to pursue other projects. After co-writing one episode of ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'', Gordon created his own show, the short-lived ''Strange World'' in 1999. ''Strange World'' went to seed 13 episodes in, but Gordon and ''Strange World'' writer Tim Minear's services were quickly snapped up by ''Buffy'' creator Joss Whedon on another project: ''Angel''. After two years with ''Angel'', Gordon jumped ship in 2001 for FOX's successful ''24'', where he would write several episodes in Seasons 1 & 2, then crafted the entire story arcs for Seasons 3 and 4. Gordon temporarily left ''24'' in the middle of the 2004 season to re-join Minear, this time as co-creator of another FOX series, ''The Inside''. Despite ''The Inside'' 's cancellation and short run, talk circulated of including the two Minear-Gordon series, ''Strange World'' and ''The Inside'', on a special DVD set sometime in 2006. Beginning in 2006, Gordon became ''24s showrunner, a title he held through its final season. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Howard Gordon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
