Biographie de Frank Herbert

Frank HERBERT is the bestselling author of the Dune saga. He was born in Tacoma, Washington, and educated at the University of Washington, Seattle. He worked a wide variety of jobs - including TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter, and editor of several West Coast newspapers - before becoming a full-time writer. In 1952, Herbert began publishing science fiction with "Looking for Something ? " in Startling Stories.
But his emergence as a writer of major stature did not occur until 1965, with the publication of Dune. This was followed by Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse : Dune to complete the bestselling saga. Herbert is also the author of some twenty other books, including The White Plague, The Dosadi Experiment, and Destination : Void. He died in 1986.
