HEINLEIN'S EDITOR

HEINLEIN'S EDITOR
   Robert Heinlein did some of his best work in the 1940s and 50s. His enormous success moved him from writing for pulp magazines to writing for high-class publishers like Scribners.Heinlein recommended a cover artist named Hubert Rogers to his editor at Scribners, Alice Dalgliesh. Dalgliesh said that Rogers was "too closely associated with a cheap magazine" - meaning Astounding, which published many of Heinlein’s stories.To prove her point, Dalgliesh showed him a story from the magazine, which happened to be written by Heinlein himself and published under a pseudonym. "I chuckled and said nothing," said Heinlein later." It was not my place to educate her."
