Overview: Clifford D. Simak was born in Millville, Wisconsin on August 3, 1904, son of John Lewis and Margaret (nee Wiseman) Simak.
Simak attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison and then taught in the public schools until 1929. He married Agnes Kuchenberg on April 13, 1929, and they had two children, Richard Scott and Shelley Ellen.
Soon after his marriage, Simak worked at various newspapers in the Midwest. He began a lifelong association with the Minneapolis Star and Tribune (in Minneapolis, Minnesota) in 1939, which continued until his retirement in 1976. He became Minneapolis Star’s news editor in 1949 and coordinator of Minneapolis Tribune’s Science Reading Series in 1961.
Simak became interested in science fiction after reading the works of H.G. Wells as a child. His first contribution to the literature was “The World of the Red Sun”, published by Hugo Gernsback in the December 1931 issue of Wonder Stories with one opening illustration by Frank R. Paul. Within a year he placed three more stories in Gernsback’s pulp magazines and one in Astounding Stories, then edited by Harry Bates. Mostly because of “creative differences” between Bates and himself, Simak only published one story between 1932 to 1938.
Once John W. Campbell, at the helm of Astounding from October 1937, began redefining the field, Simak returned and was a regular contributor to Astounding Science Fiction (as it was renamed in 1938) throughout the Golden Age of Science Fiction (1938–1950).
