George Clayton Johnson

George Clayton Johnson (born July 10, 1929 in Cheyenne, Wyoming) is an American science fiction writer most famous for co-writing the novel ''Logan's Run'' with William F. Nolan (basis for the 1976 film). He is also known for his work in television, writing screenplays for such noted series as ''The Twilight Zone'', such as "Nothing in the Dark", "Kick the Can", "A Game of Pool" and "A Penny for Your Thoughts", and ''Star Trek'', the first aired episode of the series, "The Man Trap". He also wrote the story on which the 1960 and 2001 films ''Ocean's Eleven'' were based. His work has appeared in numerous anthologies by editors such as Dennis Etchison, Jason V Brock, and Christopher Conlon. He was the proprietor of Cafe Frankenstein, and co-created the comic book series ''Deepest Dimension Terror Anthology'' with cartoonist and author Jay Allen Sanford for Revolutionary Comics, which adapted his stories from ''The Twilight Zone'' (including unproduced teleplays) and stories by his friends and contemporaries such as Larry Niven, Robert Bloch, and Dennis Etchison.
==Biography==
Born in a barn, he had to repeat the sixth grade and dropped out of school entirely in the eighth. He briefly served as a telegraph operator then draftsman in the United States Army, enrolled at the Alabama Polytechnic Institute (now Auburn University) under the G.I. Bill, quit to return to his travels around the U.S., working as a draftsman, before becoming a writer.
In 1960 the first story Johnson ever wrote served as the basis for the Rat Pack movie ''Ocean's 11'', although most of the details were changed for the film. He joined the Southern California School of Writers that included Theodore Sturgeon, William F. Nolan, Charles Beaumont, Richard Matheson and Ray Bradbury. Through them he met Rod Serling, to whom he sold his first story ("All of Us Are Dying", produced as "The Four of Us Are Dying") and, later, his first teleplay ("A Penny for Your Thoughts").
