Jack Stewart Williamson  (April 29, 1908 – November 10, 2006)

Well, we knew he couldn’t go on forever.  Jack had a singular career in SF.  His first story, The Metal Man, was published in 1928 in SF first science fiction magazine, Amazing Stories.  Jack learned to adapt to the evolution of this literature we call science fiction.  But from the beginning to the end, Jack always told a good story.

His career has many highlights.  I certainly didn’t read all of his books and stories but some of my favorites are:

• The Legion of Space and it’s sequels - awesome adventure stories.
• Seetee Shock and Seetee Ship
• Darker Than You Think - classic werewolf novel
• The Humanoids
• Wall Around a Star, Farthest Star - with Fredric Pohl
• The Collected Works of Jack Williamson Vol l-lV - Excellent collections, lovingly put together by Haffner Press.

By all accounts Jack was the nicest of the nice.  I’m sure Jack will be appearing on a future Talks in Time on the Time Traveler Show.

The first in our Talks in Time series.  From March 3rd, 1974, Isaac Asimov gives a nearly one hour talk to the John Hopkins University on the subject of “Utopian Change”.  Phenomenal and still relevent!
