co-creator

Shared credit recipient

A co-creator is someone who creates something jointly with another person or group.

The term appears in creative contexts—television shows, comic books, artistic collaborations: Stan Lee was the co-creator of Spider-Man.

It also has spiritual uses, suggesting humans participate with a divine force in shaping reality: We are co-creators of our own destiny.
