American freelance writer who sold story premises to Voyager and Deep Space Nine through the series' open pitching policy, including Elogium, Rise and Doctor Bashir, I Presume.
Jimmy Diggs is an American writer who became one of the most persistent and successful freelance pitchers to the Star Trek series of the 1990s.
For Star Trek: Voyager he shares the story credit on Elogium, in which space-dwelling creatures trigger Kes's fertile phase early, and devised the story for Rise, which sends Tuvok and Neelix up an orbital tether.
For Deep Space Nine he supplied the story for Doctor Bashir, I Presume, the fifth-season episode that brings Doctor Lewis Zimmerman to the station and reveals that Julian Bashir was genetically enhanced as a child; the teleplay was by Ronald D. Moore.
