==Creation and development==
In crafting the character of Leo McGarry, series creator Aaron Sorkin said he envisioned John Spencer in the part but had not imagined he would be available.〔Sorkin, Aaron (2002). ''The West Wing Script Book''. New York: Newmarket Press. ISBN 1-55704-499-6〕 Although he had recently decided he did not want to do another TV drama series due to the long hours, Spencer was so impressed by the pilot script that he took the part.〔Spencer, John (June 27, 2002). (John Spencer chatted about life as Leo McGarry ). ''Channel 4''. Retrieved on December 12, 2007.〕 Like the character, Spencer was a recovering alcoholic, and said he found he could relate to McGarry because "Leo's in recovery, too."〔Cutler, Jacqueline. (Hail to the chief (of staff): Leo McGarry, aka John Spencer ). ''ClickTV''. Retrieved on December 12, 2007.〕
In an earlier draft of the pilot script, dated February 6, 1998, McGarry is called "Leo Jacobi" and is described as being aged 55 and "professorial".〔Sorkin, Aaron (February 6, 1998). (West Wing Pilot Draft ). Retrieved on December 19, 2007.〕
