BETHKE, Bruce

BETHKE, Bruce
(1955-)
   US writer best known for his short stories, in particular his first professional publication, "Cyberpunk" (1983), which appeared in AMZ after circulating in manuscript and almost certainly inspiring Gardner DOZOIS's use of the term CYBERPUNK to designate the new movement. A novel based on this story has been projected for some time under the title Def Cyberpunk but BB's only book to date is a SHARECROP: Isaac Asimov's Robot City: Robots and Aliens 5: Maverick * (1990).
