Overview: “NEW WORLDS PROFILES
Internationally, New Worlds is probably the world’s leading science fiction magazine. Not because it is read in so many countries (most good magazines circulate overseas) but because of its international galaxy of writers. This month we introduce Clifford C. Reed, who was born and educated in Durban, Natal, and comes from a South African family.
He has been a civil servant, brush salesman, storekeeper, school teacher, and cashier, but in 1950 when he was 39, he and his wife decided they wanted to see some of the world and he resigned a permanent position in Johannesburg to come to England, where he now works for an engineering firm. “We expect to remain here until our son has finished his education, but after that we have no plans,” he states.
“I came into science fiction,” he continues, “by way of Wells, Doyle, Kipling, Yates (I would rate The Stolen March as the finest fantasy novel written) classical mythology and the American pulps. Since then I have sold stories in South Africa, England and the United States.”
During the last war he served in the South African Artillery. His interests are in social work (his wife is Warden of an old peoples’ home) walking and drawing.”
