Author - Clingerman, Mildred

Birth: March 14, 1919.

Death: February 26, 1997.

Comments: Mildred Clingerman was an American science fiction author closely associated with The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. Born on Oklahoma and raised in Arizona, she graduated from high school in Tuscon and attended the University of Arizona. Her first published story, Minister without Portfolio, appeared in that magazine in 1952, and then she produced stories on a fairly regular basis from then until the mid-1970s. In addition to publishing speculative fiction stories, Clingerman also sold several works to mainstream magazines such as Atlantic, Collier's, Good Housekeeping, and the Woman's Home Companion. Though she never published a novel, in 1961 much of her science fiction work was assembled into a collection titled A Cupful of Space.

Clingerman was a charter member and a founder of the Tucson Writer's Club and was active in the Tucson Press Club. She never garnered any awards for her writing during her lifetime, but in 2014 she was posthumously honored the Cordwainer Smith Rediscovery Award.
