Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens are a prolific husband and wife writing team, known mainly for their involvement with the Star Trek franchise. They have written several books both within and outside of Star Trek, and acted as executive story editors and co-producers on the fourth season of the series Star Trek: Enterprise. Both of them are amongst the series writers who had cameos in "These Are the Voyages...", the final episode of Enterprise.
Previously, they acted as staff writers and supervising producers in the second and third seasons of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World, and wrote episodes of Batman: The Animated Series, Beyond Reality, Catwalk, Phantom 2040, The Hitchhiker, and John Woo’s Once a Thief. They also wrote Van Helsing: The London Assignment for Universal Animation Studios. [1]
Before branching into Star Trek, fantasy, and mainstream thrillers with Judith, Garfield wrote five novels blending horror and technology, prompting Stephen King to say, "Garfield Reeves-Stevens is the Tom Clancy of horror."[2] One of those novels, Children of the Shroud, is credited by New York Magazine as being the first to feature a storyline based on cloning Jesus.[3]
In August, 2010, Impossible Films announced that the Reeves-Stevens would be delivering scripts for a Primeval spin-off television series, as part of a franchise deal with Omni Film Productions. [4]
On February 8, 2011, the Reeves-Stevenses submitted a letter to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) in support of an application by CTVglobemedia Inc. to renew the broadcasting license of the Canadian science-fiction channel, Space: The Imagination Station. [5] In the letter, the Reeves-Stevenses describe their involvement with the Star Trek franchise, and also discuss other science-fiction related projects, including their writing of the "critically acclaimed miniseries, Race to Mars." Other projects they refer to include their development of an original contemporary science-fiction series titled A.K.A. under CTV's "Writer Only" development program; their involvement in a NASA space policy workshop with James Cameron to discuss, debate, and help shape U.S. space exploration goals; and their current position as Lead "Land" Writers for the Walt Disney Imagineers, helping to plan the rides and attractions for the new Shanghai Disneyland scheduled to open in 2015.
