Damon Knight (1922–2002) shaped science fiction as much through his editing and criticism as his fiction. He founded the Science Fiction Writers of America, helped create the Clarion Writers' Workshop and the Milford Conference, and set new standards as a reviewer. As a writer he is best remembered for the sardonic classic 'To Serve Man', famously adapted for The Twilight Zone. He was named a Grand Master, and the SFWA's Grand Master award now bears his name.
