Jeffrey Lieber Biography

By Bonnie Covel, About.com

Jeffrey Lieber's Birth:

Evanston, Illinois

'Lost' Involvement:

Co-creator who came up with the original idea of the show

Written for:

Lost, The Express, Tuck Everlasting, Hitched, Tangled

Of Note:

Jeffrey pitched Lost to ABC and was hired to write the script for the pilot episode, but ABC rejected his script and hired J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof to rewrite. Since then, Jeffrey has had no further input to the show, and in fact wouldn't even be credited at all if it weren't for an industry-standard arbitration.
