Simon & Schuster

Very Good in a Dust Jacket

A great opportunity to own this book

Robert Bloch (born April 5, 1917) is a U. S. writer of weird fiction, scenarioist, and copywriter.  He became interested in Weird Tales in 1932 and wrote his first fan letter to H. P. Lovecraft, beginning a friendship whose influence and inspiration Bloch has freely acknowledged.  He bgan to write for the fan field in 1934 and since became a frequent contributor including articles on fantasy films in which he has always been interested. Forced to work in other fields in the early 1940's, he turned to advertising.  In 1944 he wrote a 39-episode radio horror show, which was broadcast widely.  He wrote his first novel in 1947.  Although he has written some science fiction, he personally doesn't favour it.  He won the 1959 Hugo  for the best short story.  

Following the success of his novel "Psycho", which was made into a notable even if controversial film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1960, he moved to Hollywood.  Bloch since wrote teleplays and screenplays as well as a number of other thrillers.
