Steven Lee Sears (born December 23, 1957, in Fort Gordon, Georgia) is an American writer and producer primarily working in television.[1] He is perhaps best known for writing and co-executive producing the popular series Xena: Warrior Princess, as well as his subsequent creation Sheena, based on the comic book of the same name.
While he initially began his career as an actor, Sears found great creative success with his writing and began to pursue it full-time in 1984 (with the series Riptide), accumulating an impressive resume as staff writer, story editor and producer on such shows as Stingray, The A-Team, JJ Starbuck, The Highwayman, Father Dowling Mysteries, Swamp Thing, and Raven. In addition, he has written for shows such as Hardcastle and McCormick, Superboy, The Hollywood Detective, Jesse Hawkes, Hardball, Grand Slam, and Walker, Texas Ranger.
Sears currently lives in Los Angeles, California, and is represented by the Stein Agency. He enjoys sashimi, photography, history, the great outdoors, and Florida State University football.
