Jack L. Chalker, 1944-2005

by Ron Hogan

Veteran science fiction author Jack L. Chalker died last Friday after a prolonged bout with congested heart failure. His wife and teenage son had been providing fans with periodic updates on his official website. Science Fiction Blog has info on memorial arrangements. The Baltimore Sun has an obituary that notes his fannish activities as much if not more than his writing.
