Autorenporträt
Frederik George Pohl Jr. (November 26, 1919 - September 2, 2013) was an American science-fiction writer, editor, and fan who had a nearly 75-year career stretching from his first published work, the 1937 poem "Elegy to a Dead Satellite: Luna," by the 2011 novel All the Lives That He Led. Pohl edited Galaxy and its companion magazine If from roughly 1959 to 1969; the latter received three consecutive Hugo Awards as the year's finest professional magazine. Gateway, his 1977 novel, received four "year's best novel" awards: The Hugo, which was voted on by convention attendees, the Locus, which was voted on by magazine subscribers, the Nebula, which was voted on by American science-fiction writers, and the juried academic John W. Campbell Memorial Award. He was one of two repeat winners of the Campbell Memorial Award within the first 40 years, for the 1984 collection of novellas The Years of the City. Pohl won a National Book Award in the one-year category Science Fiction for his 1979 novel Jem, and it was a finalist for three additional year's best novel honors. He received four Hugo and three Nebula Awards, including both for his 1977 novel Gateway.
