Forrest J Ackerman
1916-2008
Forrest J. Ackerman has passed away after being diagnosed with congestive heart failure and requesting no further treatment. Last month, the editor of Famous Monsters Magazine - who inspired generations of sci-fi, horror and fantasy professionals and fans - was bidding farewell to his friends and loved ones. He celebrated his 92nd birthday on November 24th.
Forry made my youth monstrous. I will miss him dearly.
