John Andrew Keith (August 31, 1958 – August 7, 1999)〔http://www.sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/keith_andrew〕 was an American author and games developer. == Career == J. Andrew Keith, and his brother William H. Keith, Jr., had seen ads in ''Journal of the Travellers Aid Society'' that stated that Game Designers' Workshop (GDW) was seeking authors; Loren Wiseman brought them on to begin freelancing for GDW in 1978 or 1979, and together the three of them set up a lot of the early tone for the ''Traveller'' universe. J. Andrew Keith's writing for the ''Journal of the Travellers Aid Society'' was so extensive that he began to use the pseudonyms John Marshal and Keith Douglass.〔 The Keith brothers were making enough money that they were able to freelance full-time starting around 1979.〔 The Keith brothers began working for FASA by the end of 1980.〔 FASA began getting into publishing adventures for ''Traveller'' beginning with ''Ordeal by Eshaar'' (1981) by the Keith brothers, who then wrote FASA's "Sky Raiders" trilogy (1981-1982).〔 J. Andrew Keith briefly edited the magazine ''High Passage'' in 1982 before the High Passage Group told FASA that they could not publish additional ''High Passage'' material; FASA replaced this magazine with a new J. Andrew Keith magazine called ''Far Traveller'', which began publication in October 1982.〔 When FASA ended its support of ''Traveller'', the Keith brothers moved their ''Traveller'' writing to a new company called Gamelords, but continued working for FASA in other capacities.〔 The Keith brothers wrote seven supplements for Gamelords, including ''The Mountain Environment'' (1983), ''The Undersea Environment'' (1983), and ''The Desert Environment'' (1984).〔 J. Andrew Keith wrote some adventures for Fantasy Games Unlimited's ''Chivalry & Sorcery'' before the line ended.〔 The Keith brothers expanded into FGU's other lines in 1985 including ''Aftermath!'', ''Daredevils'', ''Flashing Blades'', and ''Psi World''.〔 The Keith brothers also designed ''Freedom Fighters'' (1986), one of the last role-playing games published by FGU.〔
