#PeterDavid has written so many things that so many people have enjoyed-- books, movies, comics, streaming, and more. You've undoubtedly enjoyed his work without realizing it. He's written scripts and books for #StarTrek, #Babylon5, #Oblivion, the #DCU, the #MCU (comics, TV, and movies), and more.

I rarely post a #GoFundMe, unless I know it's truly worthwhile. Please donate and say thank you to someone who has given you so many hours of entertainment.
