"Jeri Taylor, known to Trek fans for her work on Star Trek: The Next
Generation
 and Star Trek: Voyager has passed away. The Emmy-nominated writer
and producer was 86 years old. According to her son Andrew, Jeri passed away
Wednesday night at an assisted living facility in Davis, CA.

Jeri Taylor began her time with the Trek franchise in the fourth season of
The Next Generation, becoming the showrunner in the final season, which
garnered her an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Drama Series. She co-created
Star Trek: Voyager with Rick Berman and Michael Piller, and stayed with the
series as executive producer and showrunner until retiring and handing over the
reins to Brannon Braga after the fourth season. It was Braga who first shared
the news of Taylor’s passing on Instagram, praising her writing and describing
her as “a cherished mentor,” crediting his career to her “intricate guidance.”"

RIP,
