Miller, Jr.. To my knowledge the following list is complete; 1 CONDITIONALLY HUMAN; a collection of three novellas: a Conditionally Human-Copyright 1952 Galaxy Publishing Corporation. b Dark Benidiction-Copyright 1951 Ziff-Davis Publishing Company. c The Darfsteller-Copyright 1954 Street & Smith Publications, Inc. 2 A VIEW FROM THE STARS; a collection of short stories: a You Triflin' Skunk. Originally, Triflin' Man-Copyright 1954 King-Size Publications, Inc. b The Will-Copyright 1953 Ziff-Davis Publishing Company. c Anyboby Else Like Me. Originally, Command Performance-Copyright 1952 Galaxy Publishing Corporation. d Big Joe And The N-th Generation. Origianlly, It Takes A Thief-Copyright 1952 Quinn Publishing Company, Inc. e Crucifixus Etiam-Copyright 1953 W. M. Miller, Jr. f I, Dreamer-Copyright 1953 Ziff-Davis Publishing Company. g Dumb Waiter-Copyright 1952 Street & Smith Publications, Inc. h Blood Bank-Copyright 1952 Street & Smith Publications, Inc. i The Big Hunger-Copyright 1952 W. M. Miller, Jr. 3 A CANTICLE FOR LEIBOWITZ; a novel-Copyright 1959 W. M. Miller, Jr. Parts of which appeared in a different form in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. These parts are copyright 1956 The Fantasy House, Inc. As can be seen all of his shorter works, excluding the precursors to 3, where published from 1951 to 1954. Apart from a snippet here and there from science fiction biographical encyclopaedias, I know next to nothing about W. M. Miller, Jr. I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some personal information on W.M. Miller, Jr., i.e., date of birth, place of birth, education, family history, just so I can get some idea of how his point of view was shaped. I am also interested to know if apart from the afore mentioned works, he has written anything else of a sf bent, or otherwise. Cordially, Lino. P.s. Replies through either email or the net would be fine with me. Thank you.
