In no particular order he has been a dish washer, a college professor, a soldier, a filmmaker, a newspaperman, a short-order cook, a federal bureaucrat, a radio broadcaster, a music critic, and an anthologist.
One of the most versatile and popular of modern authors, he has written more than fifty books as well as uncounted short stories, screenplays, television scripts and magazine features.
