Authors
A pseudonym used by brothers Earl Andrew Binder and Otto Oscar Binder
Malcolm Jameson began writing only seven years before his death. Yet in that short span he wrote and sold more than 70 novelettes and short stories. Critic Groff Conklin calls Jameson's work "lively, ingenious and readable." The majority of Jameson's work appeared in the magazines "Astounding Science Fiction" and "Unknown Worlds" but he was also published in a number of the other pulp magazines of the late 1930's and early 40's. His novella "Blind Alley", first published in the June 1943 issue of Unknown, was the basis for the Twilight Zone episode "Of Late I Think of Cliffordville" starring Albert Salmi, John Anderson, and Julie Newmar. The hour-long episode was broadcast on April 11, 1963.
"He was honored by fans with three Hugo awards and by colleagues with one Nebula award and was named the third Grand Master by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) in 1977." (Wikipedia) See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifford...
