Steven Lee Sears (born December 23, 1957 in Fort Gordon, Georgia) is an American writer and producer primarily working in television. 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, J.J. 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. He has also written in the arenas of film, stage, animation and interactive.
Steven L. Sears was born into a military family, his father being a career soldier with the U.S. Army. Consequently, Steven traveled quite a bit, his family being rotated out to new assignments every three years. As a result, he had managed to visit 14 countries and 48 U.S. states before the age of 13, when his father retired from the military. Moving to the small town of St. Augustine, Florida, Steven became active in the arts programs at St. Augustine High School, as well as local productions. Music and Drama became his major focus as his first "professional" acting work was in "The Cross and the Sword", a symphonic drama which was the Official State Play of Florida.
