  Hopkins, John
John Hopkins is one of the great pioneers of British television drama, whose considerable output as a writer includes the award-winning play quartet, Talking to a Stranger, described by one contemporary critic as "the first authentic masterpiece written directly for television".
Hopkins' career in television began first as a studio manager in the 1950s, but he was soon turning his attention to writing and putting this earlier experience to good use in his plays, and there are few other writers who have exploited so effectively the potential of the multi-camera studio in their work.
Hopkins vision of human loneliness and alienation may be an uncompromisingly bleak and pessimistic one, but it is made compelling through his artistic manipulation of the television medium.

 John HOPKINS & Jane __?__
An arrival of Jane Strong in Hartford in 1635 puts her in a position to meet and marry John Hopkins when he moved to Hartford in 1636.
This date has ramifications because John Hopkins is believed to have immigrated in 1634 — and certainly he was in Massachusetts by 1634.
One often sees either 1634 or 1637 given as the date of Stephen's birth, but these appear to be estimates based on the writer's belief that John and Jane met and married after he came to America.
