Not every show biz hyphenate can live up to their adjectives. Alex Kurtzman certainly did. As a film and television writer, his work was both critically and commercially successful, but he also accrued a string of producer credits that were enviable in their own right. Kurtzman was genuinely multi-faceted, and became synonymous with Hollywood blockbusters in the sci-fi and fantasy genres.
