You may have first noticed Jesse Alexander's name in the executive producer credits for ABC's popular spy drama Alias. Now, this Santa Barbara native who got his start making Super-8 movies with his Star Wars figures has graduated from the depths of SD-6 and APO and has moved into the world of Heroes.

A self-admitted "fan boy from way back," Alexander took the film school route before ending up in Los Angeles, where he struggled to sell his spec scripts. This journey landed him at Dark Horse Entertainment, where he did his first professional writing job creating a new opening sequence for Barb Wire starring Pamela Anderson.

Alexander then wrote a ton of features, several of which didn't get made (such as Flash Gordon and a modern day Jason and the Argonauts) and some that did (like Eight Legged Freaks). Eventually Jesse Alexander's childhood buddy - a fellow by the name of JJ Abrams - asked for his assistance on a pilot he was writing for a show about a co-ed by day, spy by night hero named Sydney Bristow. This adventure lasted for five years. JJ also enlisted Alexander's help with a crazy idea about a bunch of people who plane crash on an island -- a show you all know as Lost.

Now, Jesse Alexander moves his creative talent and experience in working on mythology-based hour-long dramas to Heroes.
