Edmond
Hamilton (1904-1977)
Born in Youngstown, Ohio, Edmond Hamilton was raised there and in
nearby New Castle, Pennsylvania. He was something of a child prodigy,
graduating from high school and undertaking his college education at
Westminster College at the young age of 14; he dropped out aged 17. A
popular science fiction writer in the mid-twentieth century, Hamilton's
career began with the publication of his short story 'The Monster God of
Mamurth' in the August 1926 issue of Weird Tales
. After the war, he wrote for DC Comics, producing stories for Batman,
Superman and The Legion of Superheroes. Ultimately, though, he was
associated with an extravagant, romantic, high-adventure style of SF,
perhaps best represented by his 1947 novel The Star Kings
. He was married to fellow SF writer Leigh Brackett from the end of 1946
until his death three decades later.
