American author of dozens of Star Trek novels and comics, including Reunion and the Stargazer series, who also shares the story credit for the Voyager episode Resistance.
Michael Jan Friedman is an American writer of novels and comics who has been one of the most prolific contributors to Star Trek publishing since the late 1980s.
His novels include Reunion, published in 1991 as the first hardcover based on The Next Generation, which introduced the surviving officers of Picard's earlier command, the USS Stargazer. He later developed that crew in the Stargazer series of novels, and he wrote much of the monthly Next Generation comic for DC.
On television he shares the story credit with Kevin J. Ryan for Resistance, a second-season episode of Voyager for which Lisa Klink wrote the teleplay. Joel Grey guest-starred as Caylem, the confused old man who takes Janeway for his daughter.
