His career in science fiction was short but influential. His first story A Martian Odyssey was published to great and enduring acclaim in July 1934 but he would be dead from lung cancer within eighteen months. Weinbaum was born in Louisville Kentucky and attended school in Milwaukee. He attended the University of Wisconsin first as a chemical engineering major but later switching to English as his major but contrary to common belief he did not graduate. On a bet Weinbaum took an exam for a friend and was later discovered he left the university in 1923. He is best known for the groundbreaking science fiction short story A Martian Odyssey which presented a sympathetic but decidedly non-human alien Tweel. Even more remarkably this was his first science fiction story in 1933 he had sold a romantic novel The Lady Dances to King Features Syndicate which serialized the story in its newspapers in early 1934 . Isaac Asimov has described A Martian Odyssey as a perfect Campbellian science fiction story before John W. Campbell. Indeed Tweel may be the first creature in science fiction to fulfil Campbell s dictum write me a creature who thinks as well as a man or better than a man but not like a man . Asimov went on to describe it as one of only three stories that changed the way all subsequent ones in the science fiction genre were written. It is the oldest short story and one of the top vote-getters selected by the Science Fiction Writers of America for inclusion in The Science Fiction Hall of Fame Volume One 1929-1964. Most of the work that was published in his lifetime appeared in either Astounding or Wonder Stories. However several of Weinbaum s pieces first appeared in the early fanzine Fantasy Magazine successor
