Spider Robinson (spiderrobinson.com) has won three Hugos, a Nebula, and numerous other international awards. His thirty-five books are available in ten languages, and his short work has appeared in countless magazines and anthologies.

In 2006 he was chosen by the Robert A. Heinlein estate to write Variable Star based on an outline by Heinlein. That year he was invited to the National Book Festival in Washington, D.C., where he dined with the President and First Lady and read aloud from Variable Star on the National Mall.

His op-ed column "The Crazy Years" appeared in The Globe and Mail from 1996 to 2001. He's written and/or recorded original music with David Crosby, Todd Butler, and Amos Garrett.

Spider's been married for thirty-four years to Jeanne Robinson, a Boston-born writer, choreographer, and retired dancer, who is now co-developing a film about zero-G dance based on her and Spider's award-winning novella "Stardance," for which she was separately invited to the 2006 National Book Festival. The Robinsons have lived for ten years on Bowen Island, British Columbia, where they raise and exhibit prize hopes.
