Profession Writer
Robert Stratton "Buck" Coulson was an American science fiction writer, well-known fan, filk song writer, fanzine editor and bookseller from Indiana. Coulson's novels include But What of Earth?, To Renew the Ages, and Lazer Tag: Adventure No 1: High Spy. With Gene DeWeese, he wrote two novels set in science fiction fandom, Now You See It/Him/Them... and Charles Fort Never Mentioned Wombats; and two Man from U.N.C.L.E novels under the pseudonym of Thomas Strattton, The Invisibility Affair and The Mind-Twisters Affair. He served as Secretary of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America from 1972-74. Coulson and his wife, writer and filker Juanita Coulson, edited the mimeographed fanzine Yandro, which was nominated for the Hugo Award 10 years in a row, from 1959 through 1968, and won in 1965. Yandro featured Coulson's incisive reviews of books and, especially, fanzines. Film critic and one-time active fan Roger Ebert wrote: "Locs were the currency of payment for fanzine contributors; you wrote, and in the next issue got to read about what you had written. Today I can see my name on a full-page ad for a movie with disinterest, but what Harry Warner or Buck Coulson had to say about me — well, that was important."
