Megan Hilty made her Broadway debut as Glinda in WICKED and starred in the role in the Los Angeles production, as well as starring as Doralee Rhodes in 9 TO 5. She is a graduate of the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. Credits include "Cafe" (City Theatre), "Suds" (OCT) and "The Wild Party" (CMU). Megan is a recipient of the National Society of Arts and Letters Award for Excellence in Musical Theater.

SMASH stemmed from an idea of executive producer and multiple Emmy and Oscar winner Steven Spielberg ("ER," "Schindler's List"). The pilot was written by acclaimed playwright/screenwriter Theresa Rebeck ("Mauritius," "NYPD Blue"). David Marshall Grant ("Brothers and Sisters"), Craig Zadan and Neil Meron (Oscar-winning "Chicago," "Hairspray") and Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey ("United States of Tara," "The Borgias") also serve as executive producers. Original songs are written by Tony and Grammy Award winners Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman ("Hairspray," "Catch Me If You Can"), who serve as executive producers as well. SMASH is a production of Universal Television in association with DreamWorks Television and Madwoman in the Attic. The pilot was directed by Tony Award winner Michael Mayer ("Spring Awakening," "American Idiot").
