I recommend "The Twilight Zone Companion," a book by Marc Scott Zicree that has lots of background stories for most of the episodes and the writers, directors and lead cast for each one. The show really was Serling's vision but there were a handful of other writers who were regular contributors.

But what really impressed me was, he always proudly said who the next week's writers were, not the director, the writer. And I don't mean he promoted himself, he never did that.

That is cool. It really was a writer's show and they managed, in most episodes, to pack an emotion-driven plot, often triggered by a fantastic concept, into 30 minutes.
