Darren Star

Highest Rated: 50% Sex and the City (2008)

Lowest Rated: 16% Sex and the City 2 (2010)

Birthday: Jul 25, 1961

Birthplace: Potomac, Maryland, USA

When the series he created, "Beverly Hills, 90210" premiered on Fox in 1990 and launched his career, Darren Star was credited by some with energizing the network and with reviving the Spelling TV empire. Prior to "90210," Star's entire writing output had amounted to an unproduced "Charles in Charge" spec script and two features, "Doing Time on Planet Earth" (1988), a failed comedy about a teenager convinced he must be from another planet, and "If Looks Could Kill" (1991), a teenage spy spoof that was supposed to turn Richard Grieco into a film star but didn't.
