Overview: Edmond Moore Hamilton (1904-1977) was born in Youngstown, Ohio. He grew up there and in nearby New Castle, Pennsylvania, where he graduated high school at age 14. He then enrolled in Westminster College in New Wilmington, Pennsylvania, but failed academically and left at age 17 before graduating.
Hamilton’s career as a science fiction writer began with the publication of the short story “The Monster God of Mamurth” in the August 1926 issue of Weird Tales magazine. Hamilton quickly became a central member of the writers assembled by editor Farnsworth Wright—a group that included H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, Frank Belknap Long, E. Hoffmann Price, and many others. Ultimately, Weird Tales published 79 stories and novels by Hamilton between 1926 to 1948, making him (with Seabury Quinn) one of the magazine’s most prolific contributors.
However, it was for the science fiction pulps that Hamilton made his greatest mark. Hamilton wrote science fiction prolifically, popularizing (with E.E. “Doc” Smith) the action-oriented “space opera” genre. His story “The Island of Unreason” (Wonder Stories, May 1933) won the first Jules Verne Prize (the first award voted on by science fiction fans, a precursor of the Hugo Awards) as the best science fiction story of the year.

In the later 1930s, in response to the economic strictures of the Great Depression, he also wrote detective and crime stories.
In the 1940s, Hamilton was the primary force behind Captain Future magazine, a science fiction pulp designed for juvenile readers that won him many fans, but diminished his reputation in later years as science fiction readership aged and the focus of the field shifted away from space opera, which felt dated and simplistic.
Edmond Hamilton died in February 1977 in Lancaster, California, of complications following kidney surgery.
