Clifford Donald Simak (August 3, 1904 – April 25, 1988) was an American science fiction writer. He was honored by fans with three Hugo Awards and by colleagues with one Nebula Award.〔 The Science Fiction Writers of America made him its third SFWA Grand Master〔 and the Horror Writers Association made him one of three inaugural winners of the Bram Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement.〔 ==Personal life== Simak was born in Millville, Wisconsin in 1904, son of John Lewis and Margaret (Wiseman) Simak. He married Agnes Kuchenberg on April 13, 1929 and they had two children, Richard (Dick) Scott (d. 2012) and Shelley Ellen. Simak attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison and later 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. In a blurb in ''Time and Again'' he wrote, "I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty three years and have two children. My favorite recreation is fishing (the lazy way, lying in a boat and letting them come to me). Hobbies: Chess, stamp collecting, growing roses." He dedicated the book to his wife Kay, "without whom I'd never have written a line". He was well liked by many of his science fiction cohorts, especially Isaac Asimov. He died in Minneapolis in 1988.〔
