Hawley, who wrote episodes in Seasons 2, 3 and 4, previously served as an executive story editor, co-producer and producer before moving on to such shows as Body of Proof and the recently canceled The Following. Winter, a long-time producer on the show, has written 13 episodes over the past five seasons.
