Margaret St. Clair
Margaret St. Clair (17 February 1911 – 22 November 1995) was an American science fiction writer. Beginning in the late 1940s, St. Clair wrote and published, by her own count, some 130 short stories. St. Clair wrote that she “first tried [her] hand at detective and mystery stories, and even the so-called ‘quality’ stories,” before finding her niche writing fantasy and science fiction for pulp magazines. “Unlike most pulp writers, I have no special ambitions to make the pages of the slick magazines. I feel that the pulps at their best touch a genuine folk tradition and have a balladic quality which the slicks lack.” (more…)
