Today on the lost sci-fi podcast we’ll feature an author born in Colorado Springs, Colorado on June 20th, 1911. Our featured author is a pretty talented guy. He studied writing at the University of Colorado in Boulder and drawing, painting and lithography at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center.

His art was so good that some of his paintings of Indian ceremonial dances are part of the permanent collection at the Denver Art Museum. Keeping true to his Colorado roots he worked as an assistant curator of the Colorado State Historical Museum during the 1940s.

He was also talented in the literary arts, having written over 200 stories and articles, poems, essays and one novel. In 1948 he published a chapbook, The Sphinx Child. What is a chapbook you ask? It’s a small collection of poems.

From Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy in April 1955 enjoy this lost sci-fi short story written by Stanley Mullen.

Next week we’ll go back to 1954 and listen to a story by an author I can’t find anything about. He wasn’t prolific, not famous but the story we have on tap for next week is one of my favorites.
