Timothy "Tim" P. Minear (/maɪˈniːr/) (born October 29, 1963) is an American screenwriter and director. He has been nominated for two Emmy Awards (2013, 2014) for his role as an executive producer on American Horror Story. 2Life and career He was born in New York City, grew up in Whittier, California, and studied film at California State University, Long Beach. Minear was an assistant director on the film Platoon, and wrote episodes for several television series including The X-Files, Zorro, and Lois and Clark. He later wrote, executive-produced, and directed episodes of Strange World, Angel, Firefly, Wonderfalls, and The Inside (which he also created, with Howard Gordon). Minear had another series, Drive, airing on Fox in April 2007, however it was cancelled by the network after only four episodes. Drive was set to return with two additional episodes on July 4, 2007, but these were rescheduled to July 13 and then cancelled. This continued his tradition of short-lived work on Fox. Minear often works with Joss Whedon, and his work is typically characterized by a sharp, black humour and an ability to portray characters who are sympathetic and understandable, but morally ambiguous. An example of this is Angel Season Two, where Minear wrote all of the key episodes in the "beige Angel" ar
