Henry Kuttner (1915–1958) was one of science fiction's most protean talents, writing under a shelf of pseudonyms (most famously Lewis Padgett) and very often in seamless collaboration with his wife, C. L. Moore. Together they produced classics like 'Mimsy Were the Borogoves' and the comic Gallegher stories. Admired by writers from Bradbury to Roger Zelazny, Kuttner brought wit, craft and restless invention to everything he touched before his early death at forty-two.
