hello, i was wondering if you all could help me... i remember someone telling me that ray bradbury also published under another name--romance novels and other things he doesnt ordinarily write. im almost positive it was the name douglas spalding...but when i go to look for books by that name i cant find any. If anyone knows if this is in fact true, that he does publish under another name, and if so what it is, that would be wonderful. IP: Logged |

He's used several, but never for whole books, only individual pieces. I think "Leonard Douglas" is the one you're thinking of. IP: Logged |

Also, if 'marionette' wants to take the time and start searching, ALL the names that Bradbury has used is listed here under some appropriate topic heading.... IP: Logged |

For some of the other names that have been used by Ray (and there are more; for example, he used the name "Ron Reynolds" in some of his writing for his fanzine, FUTURIA FANTASIA), see the top of the page of the link below: http://isfdb.tamu.edu/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?Ray_Bradbury IP: Logged |

Sorry it took so long to respond, and I hope this is still helpful. From: "The Ray Bradbury Companion" by William F. Nolan. Most stories published used his own name, but Nolan indicates the following pseudonyms (these tend to be early in his career): -- Doug Rogers He lists the following professional pen names: -- Edward Banks For details, you'll need to get the book; but I hope this information is helpful. THE RAY BRADBURY COMPANION. by William F. Nolen. Published by Gale Research. Detroit, MI. 1975. (pp 299-300) IP: Logged |

I am new to the world of Ray Bradbury and this message board. I am a puppeteer and wonder if "marionette" is a puppeteer as well or is it a reference to the author's writings. Just curious more than anything. Thanks! IP: Logged |

See Illustrated Man - s.s. collection. Not a "puppet" in the true sense of the word, but rather an android or mechanical human reproduction for the purpose of "freedom" from what complicates one's daily life. A classic RB. IP: Logged |
