Pamela Gray (born 1956) is an American screenwriter. Biography Gray was raised in a Jewish family in New York City, the daughter of a salesman and a schoolteacher. She earned an M.A. in poetry from Boston University after which she spent several years teaching. While living in Oakland, she wrote a script for a play that had a successful run. She then moved to Los Angeles and enrolled in UCLA's screenwriting program (where she studied under Lew Hunter) during which she interned with the producer of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Career During Gray's internship at Star Trek, she re-wrote an episode (Violations) which was used. In 1992, she wrote The Blouse Man (retitled A Walk on the Moon) based on her experiences vacationing in the Catskills for which she won the Samuel Goldwyn Writing Award. The script was not initially purchased until it was seen by actor Tony Goldwyn who was given the script by his agency, Creative Artists Agency. They tried to recruit David Seltzer as director but failed and they then agreed to let Goldwyn direct. This began a longtime collaboration between Gray as writer and Goldwyn as director.
