From 1994 to 1998, Christian starred as Commander [[Susan Ivanova]] on ''[[Babylon 5]]''. She left the science fiction series when contract negotiations for the fifth and final season broke down. Series creator [[J. Michael Straczynski]] maintains that she chose to leave on her own, while Christian avers that she wished to return for the final season but was released when she requested a reduction in the number of episodes in which she would appear so she could complete another project. Christian did appear in the series finale, reprised her role in ''[[Babylon 5: In the Beginning]]'' and ''[[Babylon 5: Thirdspace]]'', collaborated with cast members on the album ''[[The Be Five]]'', and conceived her own interactive fan convention, ''Claudia Con UK'', which took place in the UK.<ref>''Christian, Claudia, Buchanan, Morgan Grant.''
