Acerca del autor

He was the recipient of the "Casper Award" (precursor to the Canadian Prix Aurora Awards) for Lifetime Achievement in 1980, and in 1995 The Science Fiction Writers of America named him its 14th Grand Master. He also received a Special Award from the World Science Fiction Convention "for six decades of golden age science fiction" in 1996, and was inducted into the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame that same year.
