Kenneth Weaver
Kenneth Franklin Weaver (November 29, 1915 – September 20, 2010) enjoyed a substantial 33-year career as a writer for the ''National Geographic Magazine''. His prolific tenure with ''National Geographic'' produced articles encompassing a range of subjects until he retired as Senior Science Editor in 1985.〔(LJWorld.com / National Geographic memories )〕
==Career==
In 1952, Weaver was hired at ''The National Geographic'' in the legends department. "Legends" were, in fact, the captions that accompanied the innovative, often exotic photography that the ''Geographic'' pioneered at that time, and still do to this day. Weaver’s role was very high-profile, as the majority of ''Geographic'' subscribers primarily opened the magazine to peruse the pictures.〔 Within this department, Weaver thrived, and he was quickly promoted to Staff Writer. His first ''Geographic'' article, entitled "Rip Van Winkle of the Underground: North America's Much Misunderstood Insect, the Periodical Cicada, Emerges After 17 Years in the Earth for a Fling in the Sun", was published in July 1953.
Weaver's career is particularly notable because of his coverage of the NASA space program, from articles such as "Countdown for Space" in May 1961, "And Now to Touch the Moon's Forbidding Face", May 1969, and "Journey to Mars", February 1973. Weaver's articles were translated in many languages, bringing together people whose existences were drastically different, but who shared a single fascination with a subject that went beyond any cultural or political disparity at that time (most importantly, the Cold War space race between the US and Soviet Union).
All told, Weaver wrote 37 stories for ''The National Geographic'', mostly within the Science beat.〔http://www.nationalgeographic.com/publications/explore.html〕 Upon his retirement, he wrote his last piece for the ''Geographic's'' November 1985 issue - the magazine's cover story for that month - entitled "The Search for Our Ancestors: Stones, Bones, and Early Man."〔(Homo Erectus Discovery, Dmanisi Find, Learn More - National Geographic Magazine )〕
