Christa Nolan is an agent in Colonial Intelligence.

She comes to Galactica in order to recruit seven pilots, including Karl Agathon and Kara Thrace, to trap any of Darja Purat's terrorist compatriots in any attempt to rescue Purat. Allegedly, her plan is to dangle Purat in order to lure and capture his cohorts, who have attacked two Colonial targets, as they escort Purat to an undisclosed destination through Colonial space.

However, when Purat's cohorts make their bid to extricate their leader, Nolan seizes the outside distraction they provide to free Purat herself. This being the intention all along as she and Purat are romantically involved (Battlestar Galactica: Season Zero 4), she and Purat escape, with Agathon and Thrace pursuing Nolan's FTL-capable escape ship to one of Sagittaron's outermost moons to meet with Julian DiMarco, an ex-Colonial Fleet admiral wanting to rebel and overthrow the allegedly corrupt Colonial government (Battlestar Galactica: Season Zero 3, 4).

She later kills Sil, Julian DiMarco's wife, after Sil kills one of the rebels and tries to enlist the help of Karl Agathon from Galactica. In his grief, DiMarco attacks Nolan, and later kills both her and Purat after they express their desire to leave (Battlestar Galactica: Season Zero 5, 6).

Glen A. Larson (born 3 January 1937, died 14 November 2014) is the creator of the original Battlestar Galactica and a "consulting producer" for the 2003 Re-imagined Series.

According to the Official Companion, Larson wanted a credit for the new 2003 Miniseries by Ronald D. Moore who began the Re-imagined Series, and his claim went to arbitration at the Writer's Guild of America. Ron Moore actually felt that Larson deserved a credit because the story was essentially the same as Larson's, just done "in different ways". As a result, Larson is credited in the Miniseries under the pseudonym "Christopher Eric James." Larson is also credited as a consulting producer on every episode of the Re-imagined Series because he holds the rights to the concept of Battlestar Galactica.

Early Life[edit]

As child to a single mother, Glen A. Larson would be later described as a "latchkey kid" by his son, David Larson, who notes his father's predilection for running water as being a means to remind himself of the halcyon time in his childhood. This was because Glen A. Larson's mother would start running a bath upon returning from work at night, and thus Larson would know that she had returned.[1]

The Four Preps[edit]

Later in life as a kid, he became a page at NBC, where he became surrounded by motion picture and, later, television production.[1] During this time, he also entered music under The Four Preps in the late 1950s, writing and performing songs that hit the top 5 in the Billboard pop charts, including "26 Miles (Santa Catalina)"[2] and "Big Man." In 1959, Larson appeared in the film Gidget, making it his first on-screen appearance.

Career[edit]

During his work with the Four Preps, Glen A. Larson began writing using IBM Selectrics, writing his first script called "Finger Popper," a script that has never been produced.[1]

Philosophy[edit]

When it came to writing, Larson believed that "writing isn't writing, it's rewriting" during the search for themes of a story. Whenever he would come across a story problem, he would "reverse it"—"if you can't make something happen one way you look at the opposite [ways]."[3]

He was also known for isolating himself from distractions, secluding himself in his Malibu, California residence when writing, not answering phone calls and delegating tasks to others.[4] Jeff Freilich, Chris Bunch, and Alan Cole, among others, have noted this in various interviews relating to Larson's approach.
