...with her daughter Harper on her lap, she hammered out the first episode of Grey's Anatomy, a medical drama about three female and two male surgical interns in a fictional Seattle hospital.

Even as she put the finishing touches on the May 15 season finale of Grey's Anatomy, Rhimes, 36, found it hard to believe that her first shot at a prime-time drama has turned into such a monster hit for ABC, consistently ranking among the top five prime-time shows.

More than half the characters on Grey's Anatomy are African American or female, although Rhimes insists she didn't write race into it at all. Her script for the pilot had no physical descriptions other than gender. But it came naturally to her to cast that way. "Shonda sees the world through the eyes of human beings.

"Her characterizations are definitely her strong suit," says ABC Entertainment chief Stephen McPherson...
