Autorenporträt
Edmond Moore Hamilton (October 21, 1904 - February 1, 1977) was a mid-twentieth-century American science fiction writer. He was born in Youngstown, Ohio, and raised in adjacent New Castle, Pennsylvania. He graduated from high school and enrolled in Westminster College in New Wilmington, Pennsylvania, at the age of 14, but dropped out when he was 17. Edmond Hamilton's career as a science fiction writer began with the publication of his short tale "The Monster God of Mamurth" in the August 1926 edition of Weird Tales, which is today considered a classic journal of alternative fiction. Hamilton rapidly established himself as a key member of Farnsworth Wright's amazing circle of Weird Tales writers, which included H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard. From 1926 to 1948, Weird Tales published 79 works of fiction by Hamilton, making him one of the magazine's most prolific contributors. Hamilton became friends and associates with several Weird Tales veterans, including E. Hoffmann Price and Otis Adelbert Kline; most famously, he had a 20-year connection with near contemporary Jack Williamson, as Williamson recounts in his 1984 autobiography Wonder's Child.
