Rodman E. ‘Rod’ Serling was an American scriptwriter, television producer, radio host and narrator. He was most popularly known for his television programs, especially for his science fiction anthology TV series, ‘Twilight Zone’, which was also produced by him so that he could control the creative quality of the series. Other famous writings by Serling are, ‘Requiem for a Heavyweight’, ‘Patterns’, ‘Night Gallery’, etc. He was awarded with many prestigious awards for his writings, like, Emmy, Golden Globe, Writers Guild of America Award, etc. Serling was always the flamboyant one in his family, with tales and stories to tell and his talent only developed as he grew up and once he achieved his military aspirations, he got into freelance writing for the radio and television. He was recognized for the first time, after he moved to New York, when ‘Patterns’ was aired. Serling was a man of principles, whose writing was purposeful and projected his ideas on anti-war activism and racial equality. He was the kind of artist who could not stand creative dissection of his work due to corporate policies, which is why he produced a show of his own and also a reason why he turned from radio to television as a medium of communication.
