Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) is generally considered the
greatest American SF writer of the twentieth century. A famous and
bestselling author in later life, he started as a navy man and
graduate of Annapolis who was forced to retire because of
tuberculosis. A socialist politician in the 1930s, he became one of
the sources of Libertarian politics in the United States in his
later years.
His most famous works include the Future History series (stories
and novels collected in "The Past Through Tomorrow" and continued
in later novels), "Starship Troopers," "Stranger in a""Strange
Land," and "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress." He was a friend of
admirals and of bestselling writers and artists, and was on the
advisory committee that helped Ronald Reagan create the Star Wars
Strategic Defense Initiative. Given his desire for privacy in the
later decades of his life, he was both stranger and more
interesting than one could ever have known.
