Rimes found much of her inspiration in things she knew. She drew on black women from history. Rhimes’ status in business was also elevated by having completed the teleplay for HBO’s Introducing Dorothy Dandridge. Rhimes is also widely more known for having created ABC's Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, and How to Get Away With Murder. In these works, she was inspired by her family. Her mother is said to be the inspiration

Without a doubt, everyone can agree that Scandal is the most dominant television show on primetime TV right now. Viewers (including myself) tune in faithfully every thursday night at 9 pm to watch the latest Scandal. Scandal was created by Shonda Rhimes, successful African American television producer and writer, who is responsible for popular political thriller Scandal. A show about the powerful crisis manager Olivia Pope who runs her own firm, in which she encounters with political leaders in the United States and other countries. Olivia Pope, who is played by Kerry Washington is strong, beautiful, intelligent, dedicated, and elegant in nature fixer, who is the best at what she does.

Scandal is a political drama series that revolves around its main character Olivia Pope, played by Kerry Washington. The show focuses on Olivia’s team solving cases for people with issues such as rape, murder, and other scandalous problems. The show is also about the relationship between Olivia and the President of the United States, Fitzgerald Grant III, played by Tony Goldwyn. Olivia used to work for the President as a White House Communications Director. Though, their interrelationship goes beyond the normal employer-employee relationship. Olivia and President Grant are secretly having an affair. As the only African American woman to play the protagonist role, Washington portrays a strong, powerful character that is complex yet identifiable for postmodern audiences. Olivia has many admirable traits that make her a popular role model, yet she is also viewed as an antihero for her lack of morals and manipulative ways. As the female antihero, “Olivia embodies many of the key aspects of an archetypal antihero and exemplifies this character type to great success” (Gallagher, n.d.). She has become an example of our society’s view of gender relations and sexuality in American popular culture.

Born only 47 years ago on January 13, 1970, Shonda Rhimes is an American television producer, screenwriter and author. She is best known as the creator, head writer, executive producer, and showrunner of many acclaimed television shows, including Grey’s Anatomy, its spin-off Private

While working as a development assistant, Shonda sold a spec script known as Human Seeking Same, which would later put her out there on the map even though it was never produced. As discouraging as this could be, she continued her journey and was later hired to co-write HBO’s Introducing Dorothy Dandridge followed by stable work as a screenwriter. This included writing scripts for Blossoms and Veils (1998), The princess Diaries 2 (2004) and Crossroads (2002). All these brought her success but transitioned to TV since she thought there is more to screenwriting than just “writing about teenage girls and their makeovers” (Weber par. 10). This decision saw her create one of the greatest ABC TV show, Grey’s Anatomy, which runs to date – at the end of the first season; Grey’s Anatomy had an audience of over twenty million. She has since then followed with great series including Off the Map (canceled), Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder.

Shonda Rhimes, the mind behind the phenomenal tv show Grey’s Anatomy was just a few steps away from my front door. She is an amazing screenwriter because she wrote and directed exceptional tv shows. My sister, cousin, and I are obsessed with Grey’s and we have so many questions.

Olivia Pope and Associates has a team whom Olivia calls ‘The Gladiators’. They are like her own superheroes they get done whatever she asks of them no questions asked.

They all play a certain role in the team of

While I may not be an avid television viewer, I enjoy watching the exciting television series, ‘Scandal’. This is my favorite television show because of the inspirational protagonist, Olivia Pope. Apart from Olivia’s questionable love affair, I believe she embodies the ideal qualities of a strong, model woman. Her character is powerful, brave, and just. In the show, Olivia Pope is a reputable attorney and she is able to help her clients out of very difficult circumstances.

Once upon a time, there was a guy who wanted to be an author. He wrote a couple of decent works and then got caught in a loop. This reviewer is setting it down here, so that he can try breaking out of it and stop crowding out other better-written books.

Honestly, until recently I have never thought of myself as being creative, not really. I can’t draw and I don’t think I am an artist, not in the creative sense anyways. According to the authors of Inside the Entrepreneurial Mind: From Ideas to Reality and Human Resources and the Entrepreneurial Organization falling into the trap of believing that I am not creative is one of the most common barriers to creativity (B & E). Like most people I just didn’t recognize when I was being creative (E). It was only recently that I learned the root of creativity simply means to have grown (C). Creativity is
