She was never satisfied with her novels. Even the best of them read like extended short stories. The short story was her strong point and I would go so far as to say she was one of the greatest short story writers of the 20th Century. And she wrote in many other mediums: I have a men's magazine from the early 60's with a story by her.Tim Mayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191899859528990414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3852401976091776228.post-36744217227239155342013-06-29T08:53:06.713-04:002013-06-29T08:53:06.713-04:00Andrew,

I was referring to information I found on Wikipedia, the Internet Speculative Fiction Database, the online Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, and the Internet Movie Database. There is also a link on one of those sites to an article by Charles S. Clifton from 1997. I checked my books on science fiction. Margaret St. Clair earned scant mention in some of them and no mention at all in others. I don't know if anyone has ever written a lengthy biography of her. It sounds like she was elusive and probably by design.<br /><br />Good luck with your research.<br /><br />THTerence E.

Out of curiosity, what biographies are you referring to? I haven't come across any. Andrew Liptakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396385266522080479noreply@blogger.com
