She had a five-year stint as a writer and producer on ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'' and shared a Hugo Award for her writing on the episode "Conversations with Dead People". Between 2009-2010 she served on ''Caprica'', as co-executive and executive producer for the television series. In 2010 she wrote an episode of HBO's ''Game of Thrones'', and joined the writing staff for the fourth season of the British television program ''Torchwood'', which aired on BBC One in the United Kingdom and Starz in the United States during mid-2011. She is currently working as a consulting producer and writer on ABC's 2011 series ''Once Upon a Time'', and has co-written and produced her first independent original web series with co-creator Brad Bell, entitled ''Husbands''. ==Early life== Espenson grew up in Ames, Iowa and graduated from Ames High School.〔(Biography of Espenson ) from her website〕 As a teenager, Espenson found out that ''M *A *S *H'' accepted spec scripts without promise of payment or future work. Though she wasn't an established writer at the time, she planned to write her first episode. She recalls, "It was a disaster. I never sent it. I didn't know the correct format. I didn't know the address of where to send it, and then I thought, they can't really hire me until I finish junior high anyway."〔 While Espenson was studying computer science and linguistics as a graduate student at University of California, Berkeley, she submitted several spec scripts for ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' as part of a script submission program open to amateur writers; Espenson has referred to the program as the "last open door of show business."〔 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「Jane Espenson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
