Neal Baer - Show Runner, Law and Order SVU, Welcome to Chechnya - Neal Baer is an Executive Producer or "Showrunner" with an incredible pedigree. But, before he dominated the world as a showrunner he was a doctor who earned his medical degree at Harvard; underachiever.
As a showrunner, his career started when his childhood friend John Wells, also a hyper-successful showrunner, suggested that Neal join him in working on China Beach. Then it was ER, and then, Law and Order SVU 20+ years later Neal is one of the biggest names in TV.
Neal's current show Designated Survivor, starring Keifer Sutherland, has a pandemic storyline. Instead of COVID-19 which comes from animals, this pandemic comes from a CRISPR (CRISPR is a real thing you should read up on what it is and how it can be used) created pathogen that is unleashed on the world.
