Carter Covington (c.): A. Covington (c.)
The creator, writer, story editor, and producer of American television shows 1973-1976.
He is best known for his screenwriting on two television series that aired on ABC Family Network: Greek and Ten Things I Hate About You.
Covington was the showrunner of Charmed's first season.
Early life
Covington grew up in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He graduated from R. J. Reynolds High School in 1991 as the son of Marie and Butch Covington. Covington earned his degree in 1995 after studying foreign affairs and Spanish at the University of Virginia. Covington was undecided about a career choice right out of college. He taught English in Mexico and later worked as an advertising executive before returning to UCLA's Business School, where he graduated in 2001. This was followed by a stint as a dog walker. He said he didn't find a career that piqued his interest until he met a screenwriter for the TV show Smallville.
Personal life
Covington is openly gay. Patrick Sean Smith, the Greek king of Maui, married him in Maui on October 25, 2008. Cormac is Cormac's one adopted son.
Career
Covington has been involved in more than 17 episodes of Greek, some of which he co-wrote with fellow University of Virginia graduate Amy Rardin. A Delta Tau Delta fraternity alumnus, Covington's own college experiences were an inspiration for his writing on Greek.
Covington is a self-professed fan of the original 1999 film 10 Things I Hate About You. He often collaborated with original film director Gil Junger on various ABC Family projects, where he regularly quizzed Junger for information about the movie. These discussions with Junger, coupled with Covington's desire to create a "reimagined" TV version of the movie, led to the creation of a pilot episode of 10 Things I Hate About You, which Junger directed. On July 7, 2009, the series premiere brought in 1.60 million viewer, a record for a 30-minute comedy debut on the ABC Family network. The series was canceled after one twenty-episode season.
In 2018 Covington became the showrunner for The CW television series Charmed after it was picked up to series, in order to help executive producers Jessica O'Toole and Amy Rardin, neither of whom had run a show before. He departed the show after its first season and was replaced by married duo Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro.
