He has written some of ''CSIs most controversial episodes, which have also sometimes been the most watched. Melinda Clarke has said that she became interested in playing Lady Heather because of the contrasts embodied within the character: "a multidimensional person who hadn't been seen, a dominatrix who was much more evolved — enigmatic and empowered".〔(Why not 'CSI: Kink'? ), ''USA Today'', February 7, 2006〕 As noted in ''The Philosophy of TV Noir'', Lady Heather is an "inspired variant" on the classic film noir femme fatale, with different aspects of her personality being explored over the course of multiple episodes. Bill Keveney of ''USA Today'' nominates Lady Heather as a favorite of viewers, crediting "her ability to read the usually opaque Grissom".〔〔(Jann Carl interview with Melinda Clarke 2008 ) Entertainment Tonight〕 Steven Cohan explores in his book on the series, Lady Heather as part of the show's "questioning of identity and the status of normality". 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「Lady Heather」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
