Stanley Grauman Weinbaum (also wrote as John Jessel and Marge Stanley) (1902-1935) was an American science fiction author. His career in science fiction was short but influential. His first story, A Martian Odyssey, was published to great acclaim in July 1934. Most of the work that was published in his lifetime appeared in either Astounding or Wonder Stories. However, several of Weinbaum's pieces first appeared in the early fanzine Fantasy Magazine in the 1930s. In 1993, his widow donated his papers to the Temple University Library in Pennsylvania. Included were several unpublished manuscripts, among them Three Who Danced, as well as other unpublished stories, mostly romance stories, but there were also a few other non-fiction and fiction writings. Amongst his other works are Parasite Planet (1935), The Adaptive Ultimate (1935), The Lotus Eaters (1935), The Brink of Infinity (1935), The Dawn of Flame (1936), The Circle of Zero (1936), Proteus Island (1936), The Mad Moon, Tidal Moon, Pygmalion's Spectacles and The Ideal.
