Walter M. Miller Jr. (1923-1996) was an American science fiction writer from Florida. He served in the air force during the Second World War and flew in dozens of bombing missions against Italian targets. The trauma of this experience marked him deeply for the rest of his life. In the 1950s Miller published a number of science fiction stories, one of which won the Hugo Award, and three of his novella-length stories became the basis for A Canticle for Leibowitz (1959; Folio 2024). After the success of the novel – which also won a Hugo – Miller continued to write but never completed another full-length book during his lifetime. He died by suicide, at his home in Daytona Beach, shortly after the death of his wife. The sequel to A Canticle for Leibowitz – Saint Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman (1997) - was completed by Terry Bisson with Miller's approval – and published posthumously.
