Description
Haldeman sold his first story in 1969 and has since written over two dozen novels and five collections of short stories and poetry. He has won the Nebula and Hugo Awards for his novels, novellas, poems, and short stories, as well as the John W. Campbell Memorial Award, the Locus Award, the Rhysling Award, the World Fantasy Award, and the James Tiptree, Jr. Award. His works include The Forever War, Forever Peace, Camouflage, 1968, the Worlds saga, and the Marsbound series.
Haldeman recently retired after many years as an associate professor in the Department of Writing and Humanistic Studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He and his wife, Gay, live in Florida, where he also paints, plays the guitar, rides his bicycle, and studies the skies with his telescope.
Jack C. Haldeman II studied environmental engineering and biology and received his degree from Johns Hopkins University. His scientific career included work in parasitology, field studies of whales in the Canadian Arctic, and study of the greenhouse effect. The tapeworm Hymenolepis haldemani was named after him.
The older brother of science fiction author Joe Haldeman, Jack Haldeman wrote five novels and published more than seventy-five short stories. “High Steel,” which he wrote with Jack Dann, was a Nebula Award finalist; it was later expanded to novel length.
Haldeman died of cancer in 2002 in his home of many years, Gainesville, Florida.
