Television writer and producer Darren Star is turning 56 today. He studied at UCLA (where he and actress Daphne Zuniga were roommates for a while) and began his screen career writing the screenplay for the late eighties comedy Doin’ Time on Planet Earth. Just two years later he emerged from obscurity as the creator of a series about a Minnesota family that relocated to Beverly Hills, CA.
Star followed up Beverly Hills, 90210 with another quintessential 1990s series, Melrose Place. Central Park West was a misfire, but Star came back in 1998 with the most critically successful of his creations so far, an adaptation of Candace Bushnell’s Sex and the City. Star won an Emmy as a producer on the series, and it brought acting Emmys to stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon, and Golden Globes to Parker and Kim Cattrall. Star then seemed to have a dry spell, but his most recent series, Younger, starring Sutton Foster, has been doing well and was renewed for a fifth season even before the premiere of its fourth.
