Eugene Roddenberry was born in the television mecca of Los Angeles, California to Gene Roddenberry and Majel Barrett Roddenberry. Eugene's parents made a conscious effort to keep their son out of the limelight and he was able to have a relatively normal childhood without the glare of Hollywood. During his formative years, Eugene's interests were more social than academic. However, he eventually understood and was ingrained with the importance of education and was able to increase his grades as he progressed in his schooling. He eventually enrolled at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts. His college career was interrupted towards his final semester because Eugene couldn't resist the pull of the family business and was offered the opportunity to work on a new series, "Gene Roddenberry's Earth: Final Conflict," to be shot in Toronto, Canada. He jumped at the chance to learn about the entertainment industry and to develop his creative juices with some of the most successful producers in the industry.

As the technical advisor for "Gene Roddenberry's Earth: Final Conflict," Eugene's job is to provide advice on how to better merge the "Gene Roddenberry philosophy" into each story. He is there to provide useful commentary and suggestions on continuity and story matter on each and every outline, script and revision that are generated by the creative writing team. This position also offers him the opportunity to work with his mother, Majel, who is one of the executive producers on the show and also plays the role of "Dr. J. Belman." He has recently been promoted to the position of co-producer for the fourth season of the show.
