David Alan Mack is a writer best known for his freelance ''Star Trek'' novels. Mack also has had a ''Star Trek'' script produced, and worked on a ''Star Trek'' comic book. ==Early career== Mack attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts as an undergraduate, from 1987 to 1991. There he majored in film and television production and screenwriting as well as writing for the student-run comedy magazine, ''The Plague''.〔(David Mack website ), accessed March 31, 2009.〕〔(‘Star Trek Destiny’ author David Mack’s Borg epic comes full cube ) Los Angeles Times, March 20, 2012〕 After receiving several rejections on early spec-script submissions to ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' and ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'', Mack teamed up with John J. Ordover, then an editor in Pocket Books' ''Star Trek'' Department. Working together, the pair combined Ordover's ability to arrange pitch meetings with the shows' producers with Mack's training in screenwriting.〔(TrekNation interview with David Mack ) by Jacqueline Bundy, July 12, 2004, accessed March 31, 2009.〕 In 1995, the pair made their first story sale, to ''Star Trek: Voyager'', though the project was never produced. A few weeks later they made another sale, this time to ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'', for the fourth-season episode "Starship Down". Another story pitched by the pair during that same meeting was bought three years later, as the basis for the seventh-season episode "It's Only a Paper Moon", for which the pair received a "story by" credit.〔 During the 1990s, Mack performed freelance editorial work for Pocket Books. That work led to Mack being invited to draft a 5,000-word supplement for John Vornholt's novel ''The Genesis Wave, Book One'', which in turn earned Mack an invitation in 2000 to write his own first full-length ''Star Trek'' book.〔 Mack and Ordover wrote the four-part ''Deep Space Nine''/''Next Generation'' comic book miniseries ''Divided We Fall'' for WildStorm. With Keith R.A. DeCandido, Mack co-wrote the two-part ''Starfleet Corps of Engineers'' (SCE) e-book story ''Invincible''. 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「David Alan Mack」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
