Born in Berkeley, California in 1933, he studied at UC Berkeley and began his career as an advertising copywriter in San Francisco before turning to fiction.And once he did, he never looked back. Goulart wrote across genres—science fiction, mystery, fantasy, and romance—publishing more than 180 books and an untold number of short stories.You might recognize his work without even knowing it. Ever heard of the TekWar novels credited to William Shatner? Goulart was the ghostwriter behind them.His son Sean once said that Ron’s true passion was science fiction. “Deep down, he wanted to be the Ray Bradbury of humorous science fiction.” After hearing today’s story, I think you’ll agree—he pulled it off brilliantly.Turn to page 73 in Amazing Stories, July 1963, The Yes Men of Venus by Ron Goulart…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Hall and Upjohn had to escape from that "No-man's-land" on Mercury. But to form a plan, they had to think—and their captors could read minds. The Thought-Men of Mercury by Russ Winterbotham.☕ Buy Me a Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsV===========================Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheLostSciFiPodcastTwitter - https://x.com/LostSciFiPodInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/lostscifiguyThreads - https://www.threads.net/@scottscifiguy=========================== ❤️ ❤️ Thanks to All Our Listeners Who Bought Us a Coffee$200 Someone$100 Tony from the Future$75 James Van Maanenberg$50 Anonymous Listener$25 Someone, Eaten by a Grue, Jeff Lussenden, Fred Sieber, Anne, Craig Hamilton, Dave Wiseman, Bromite Thrip, Marwin de Haan, Future Space Engineer, Fressie, Kevin Eckert, Stephen Kagan, James Van Maanenberg, Irma Stolfo, Josh Jennings, Leber8tr, Conrad Chaffee, Anonymous Listener$15 Every Month Someone$15 Someone, Carolyn Guthleben, Patrick McLendon, Curious Jon, Buz C., Fressie, Anonymous Listener$10 Anonymous Listener$5 Every Month Eaten by a Grue$5 Denis Kalinin, Timothy Buckley, Andre'a, Martin Brown, Ron McFarlan, Tif Love, Chrystene, Richard Hoffman, Anonymous ListenerPlease participate in our podcast survey https://podcastsurvey.typeform.com/to/gNLcxQlk Hosted on Acast.
