Joe Orlando (1927-1998; Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame, 2007) became one of EC's top science fiction/fantasy illustrators in the early 1950s. He freelanced for Mad and Warren Publications in the 1960s. In the 1970s, he edited House of Mystery, Phantom Stranger, Swamp Thing, Plop! and other titles for DC Comics, where he later became a vice president. Ray Bradbury was born in Waukegan, Illinois, in 1920. Growing up during the Great Depression, Bradbury began writing at the age of 11. Unable to join the military in World War II due to his poor eyesight, he began publishing science fiction stories. In 1947 he married Marguerite McClure and they had four daughters. His career as a writer included such notable works as Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, and I Sing The Body Electric. Primarily known for his successes in science fiction, Bradbury also worked on various horror and mystery stories, as well as screenplays and television scripts. During his lifetime he received numerous awards, including a Pulitzer in 2007. Bradbury passed away in 2012.
