However, after Geneviève Bujold was cast, she requested the character be renamed " Nicole Janeway ".

Bujold had mainly feature film experience, was unprepared for a schedule demanded by series television, and was unwilling to do news interviews.

That day, film actress Geneviève Bujold was selected to play Janeway, but left the role after only two days of filming, due to the demanding production schedule required for a television show.

While that film featured a larger " all star " cast ( in fact, Universal had approached several, including Steve McQueen and Paul Newman, to star in Earthquake-but they had already been signed for Inferno ), Universal was able to land Charlton Heston in the lead role, along with Ava Gardner ( who signed at the proverbial " 11th hour " simply because she wanted to spend the summer in Los Angeles ), George Kennedy, Lorne Greene, Geneviève Bujold ( who agreed to a part in the film to head off an impending lawsuit by Universal over a prior project ), Richard Roundtree ( riding a wave of success from the Shaft film series ), former evangelical Marjoe Gortner as an antagonist, and newcomer Victoria Principal.

Bujold began his career in politics in the early 1970s as special assistant to the Minister of Financial Institutions in the Quebec cabinet during the Bourassa Liberal government.

Bujold is one of the most acclaimed writers in her field, having won the prestigious Hugo Award for best novel four times, matching Robert A. Heinlein's record.

Bujold herself has commented that her posited system is neither technologically nor economically feasible, but is rather a convenience for storytelling.

Bujold devised for this planet a history which allowed for “ swords ‘ n ’ spaceships .” Barrayar in the lifetime of Miles Vorkosigan commands spaceships, computers, and other high technology, but its culture remembers dueling, examines newborns for defects and practices infanticide if any are found, celebrates the Emperor ’ s birthday by handing him bags of gold, and provides liveried life-sworn servants to carry love-letters sealed with the writer's blood.

Alternatively, it may be an indirect tribute to the actor Oliver Reed, whom Bujold is known to admire ( she has cited him as a model for Miles ' father Aral Vorkosigan ); Reed played the role of Athos in the 1973 film version of The Three Musketeers.

Lois McMaster Bujold ( Last name pronounced phonetically in American English as " Bu-Jold "; born November 2, 1949, Columbus, Ohio ) is an American author of science fiction and fantasy works.

The Vorkosigan Saga is a series of science fiction novels and short stories set in a common fictional universe by American author Lois McMaster Bujold.

Bujold ’ s approach varies, sometimes crossing genres.

The various forms of society and government Bujold presents often reflect 20th-century politics.

Bujold pays token attention to the variations in measurable time units from planet to planet, positing an earth-based “ standard year ” which holds through the entire Nexus.

Bujold presents issues of technological obsolescence and the high rate of failure of R & D projects in personal terms, via bioengineering.

Human life requires Earth-based botanical life, and Bujold devotes a good deal of attention in some novels to this.

Bujold presents a variety of realistic food supply technologies, including hydroponics, cultured or vat-grown meat, and fish farming.

Bujold ’ s future is one in which genetic manipulation can produce almost any kind of clone or hybrid.

The Nexus allows Bujold, paradoxically, to imagine a world in which travel and communication require far more time and effort than in the real-life 21st century, since the wormhole jumps present a special barrier.

Although Bujold explores and satirizes many kinds of societies and prejudices, her universe lacks or fails to consider several sources of social organization and prejudice on Earth: language, skin color, and religion.

Instead, Bujold builds prejudice into the “ locale ,” i. e. planetary, economics and history.

The novels have been translated into a number of languages ; see the catalog of covers of various international editions at Bujold Cover Art Archive.

The roots of the Vorkosigan Saga lie in an early short story by Bujold, " Dreamweaver's Dilemma ", which features a planet called Beta Colony and a character with the last name of Naismith.
