Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) was a well known science fiction writer. He was born in Waukegan, Illinois, in 1920, and started his writing career with Futura Fantasia, a small, mimeographed quarterly in Los Angeles.

In 2010, he threw his support behind the Tea Party movement. He said:

“  |  I hope that sometime this fall, we can destroy part of our government, and next year destroy even more of it  |  ”

His most famous books are: The Martian Chronicles and Fahrenheit 451. After the liberal filmmaker Michael Moore stole the name of his book for his film Fahrenheit 9/11, Bradbury said:

“  |  Michael Moore is a screwed a–hole, that is what I think about that case, he stole my title and changed the numbers without ever asking me for permission.  |  ”

Depending on the fans, Robert A. Heinlein, Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke, or alternatively Ray Bradbury are considered the "Big Three" science fiction writers during their lifetime.
