William Rotsler
Charles William Rotsler (July 3, 1926 - October 8, 1997) was a prolific artist, cartoonist, pornographer and science fiction author. Rotsler was a four-time Hugo Award winner and one-time Nebula Award nominee. He was drafted into the Army at the end of World War II, attended art school in Los Angeles in the late 1940s, and made a living as an artist for some time thereafter. He made wrought iron sculptures, some of which still exist (he was one of the creators of the sculpture at the entrance to the 1950s-2000s Los Angeles Police Department building), but fumes from this work were so harmful he had to give it up. He married and fathered a daughter, but the marriage did not last long.
==Pornography==
From 1958 Rotsler was involved in the pornography industry, first as a stills photographer on the set of adult films, and later as a film director and actor. He created ''Adam Film Quarterly'' (later called ''Adam Film World'') in 1966 as a sibling magazine to Knight Publishing's ''Adam'' magazine. ''Adam Film Quarterly'' featured much female nudity but only simulated sex acts. Rotsler's magazine also provided commentary about this pornography, halfway between the content of the high-end ''Playboy'' and hardcore magazine ''Hustler'', which other media would not cover. Because of the modular quality of these sexploitation films, Rotsler's stills from could be paired with his own text for a constructed narrative or used to illustrate a narrative for a nonexistent movie. Rostler earned reputations both as a writer creating novelizations from sexploitation films, and as a prolific pornographic photographer second only to Marv Lincoln. Because Rotsler became a major player at ''Adam Film Quarterly'', playing many roles in production, he began to use pseudonyms, including "Shannon Carse", "Cord Heller", "Clay McCord", and "Philip Dakota", for various cast and crew credits. He even interviewed himself as these characters in the magazine. Rotsler commented "99% of the credits were pseudonyms. On the 'lesser' productions, I'd direct as Shannon Carse and if I acted, I’d be Barney Boone. If I acted in a Rotsler-directed film, I'd be Shannon Carse." In 1969 Rotsler moved his focus to science fiction at the urging of author Harlan Ellison, although Rotsler had been a cartoonist for fanzines since he designed the cover for ''National Fantasy Fan'' volume 7 issue 2 in 1948.
