Born in the Soviet Union, he was brought to the United States at the age of three (along with his family) by agents of the American government in a successful attempt to prevent him from working for the wrong side. He quickly established himself as one of this country's foremost science fiction writers and writes about everything, and although now approaching middle age, he is going stronger than ever. He long ago passed his age and weight in books, and with some 310 to his credit, threatens to close in on his I.Q. His novel The Robots of Dawn was one of the best-selling books of 1983 and 1984.

A professor of regional analysis and political science at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, he is still trying to publish his weight.
