Robert A. Heinlein
生年: July 07, 1907 – Butler, Missouri, United States
Robert A. Heinlein was an American science fiction writer whose work explored space travel, politics, social organization, and individual liberty. Best known for Stranger in a Strange Land, Starship Troopers, and The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, he helped shape modern science fiction and won multiple Hugo Awards for his novels.
経歴と著者の歩み
Robert A. Heinlein was born in Butler, Missouri, in 1907 and grew up largely in Kansas City in a large Midwestern family whose habits of thrift, discipline, and self-reliance would remain visible in his fiction. He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1929 and served as a naval officer until illness forced his retirement in 1934, an abrupt change that became one of the defining turns of his life. He studied mathematics and physics at UCLA without taking a degree, worked in several jobs, and briefly engaged in California politics before fiction emerged as the career that matched both his technical cast of mind and his appetite for large social questions.
