My Take
Josh Friedman earns my respect as one of the unsung architects of modern science fiction. Trusted with Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, War of the Worlds, Dark Fate, and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, he keeps getting called back to the genre's biggest properties, which tells you the industry values his hand. Writing convincing SF demands both rigorous world-logic and real human stakes, a brutal balancing act. A Brown graduate who also blogs candidly, he engages the public in his own voice rather than hiding behind the screen. I always cheer for the craftsmen who build the bones of stories others get famous performing.
