GLOSSARY OF UFO TERMINOLOGY 128
His father was producer and inventor Max O. Miller. He attended Los Angeles Valley
College, UCLA, and Sherwood Oaks College.
He became interested in UFOs as a boy and in 1952, at the age of 15, founded the
UFO research group Flying Saucers International and served as the editor of its
quarterly magazine Saucers. He was the author of two books on UFOs: Flying
Saucers: Fact Or Fiction? (1957) and Flying Saucers Pictorial (1967).
Miller wrote about cinema for American Cinematographer and other publications, and
since 1976 he owned and managed the LA based celebrity photo syndication agency
Fotos International. Since 1974 his images had been represented by Rex Features in
London and Keystone Press Agency in Canada. Also with Pictorial Parade, Archive
Photos, and Image Bank which are now part of Getty Images.
A longtime Hollywood Foreign Press Association member, Miller served on their board from
1974 to 1982, and became chairman of the HFPA board in 1976 as well as a second term.
Miller committed suicide by gun the day after the 68th Golden Globe Awards. According to TV

Guide, "Miller was depressed over his divorce and financial problems." Several
obituaries noted that Miller's photography company was denied a place on the red
carpet at that year's Golden Globes, where he had been a member for 44 years.
From an online obituary by Brad Elterman – Buzz Foto: “I met Max Miller around 1975 I
when I was a teenager just getting into the photo industry. This was a magical period to be
photographer covering Hollywood and pop culture. Max was full of stories about real
movie stars and I was all ears. He was a pioneer in photo syndication who traveled the
globe and knew the industry well. Fotos International and his wonderful number one
photographer Frank Edwards covered every inch of Hollywood. Max was on the guest list
for everything and magazines published volumes of his photos every week. With many of
the great publicists and fellow celebrity photographer now gone, I assume that the
business had changed for Max during the last few years. He came from an era where the
talent, the publicist and the magazines would treat the photographer with great respect.
Not only has the photo industry lost Max, but also the end of a great era.”

Wilson was born in Evanston, Illinois. He has been married to author Nancy Winters
(née Nancy Dee Midyette) since 1966.
Wilson's cartoons and illustrations are drawn in a playfully grotesque style and have a dark
humor that is often compared to the work of The New Yorker cartoonist and Addams Family
creator Charles Addams. But while both feature vampires, cemeteries and other traditional
horror elements in their work, Addams' cartoons are gothic, reserved and old-fashioned, while
Wilson's work is more contemporary, gross and confrontational, featuring atomic mutants,
subway monsters and serial killers. It could be argued that Addams' work was probably meant
to be funny without a lot of satirical intent, while Wilson often has a very specific point to make.
Wilson was inspired by the irreverent work of the various satiric Mad and Punch
cartoonists, as well as the science fiction monster films of the 1950s. His cartoons and
prose fiction have appeared regularly in magazines such as Playboy, Collier's, and
The New Yorker for almost 50 years. In addition to his cartoons for The Magazine Of
Fantasy & Science Fiction, he also wrote movie and book reviews for that publication.
From 1992 through end of publication, he prepared all the front covers for the annual
book Passport To World Band Radio. He has been a movie review columnist for The
Twilight Zone Magazine and a book critic for Realms Of Fantasy magazine.
His comic strip Nuts, which appeared in National Lampoon, was a reaction against
what he saw as the saccharine view of childhood in strips like Peanuts. His hero, The
Kid, sees the world as dark, dangerous and unfair—but also occasionally a fun place.
Wilson wrote and illustrated a short story for Harlan Ellison's anthology Again, Dangerous
Visions (1972). The "title" is a black blob, and the story is about an ominous black blob that
appears on the page, growing at an alarming rate. He has contributed short stories to other
publications as well; "M1" and "The Zombie Butler" both appeared in The Magazine Of
Fantasy & Science Fiction and were reprinted in Gahan Wilson's Cracked Cosmos (1975).
Wilson created a computer game, Gahan Wilson's The Ultimate Haunted House, with
Byron Preiss. The goal is to collect 13 keys in 13 hours from the 13 rooms of a house
by interacting in various ways with characters (two-headed monster, mad scientist,
vampiress), objects and the house itself.

In 2005, Wilson was recognized with Lifetime Achievement from the World Fantasy
Awards. He received the World Fantasy Convention Award in 1981 and the
National Cartoonists Society's Milton Caniff Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005.

In 1937 Triangle published Click Magazine, which was fashioned after Look and Life, but unlike
those magazines also featured occasional nude pin-ups along with sensationally gruesome
photographs of sex crime scenes. The editor Emile Gauvreau (1891-1956) later recalled, "I was
part of that strange race of people aptly described as spending their lives doing things they detest
to make money they don't want to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't like."
On August 11, 1939 the same District Attorney and Federal Judge who had historically
convicted Al Capone of tax evasion, brought similar charges against Moses Annenberg.
On April 20, 1940 Moses Annenberg was convicted to serve three years in Federal prison
and to pay a fine of $8,000,000, which was the largest such penalty in U.S. history.
On December 7, 1941 the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor an America went to war.
Joseph Ottenstein spearheaded a public relations campaign to demand the release of
Moses Annenberg on patriotic grounds, "In this war period he would be serving the
country better at his desk as publisher of his big Philadelphia newspaper than in prison."
Moses Annenberg's health declined to an extreme extent, while serving his three-
year sentence in Lewisburg Pennsylvania State Prison, until doctors urged his early
release for medical treatment on June 3, 1942. He traveled to the Mayo Clinic in
Minneapolis for an emergency brain operation.
His son Walter Annenberg lead Triangle Publications to even greater prosperity and
became one of America's most outstanding charitable and political donors, by which
leverage he forged advantageous connections to Republican Presidents Richard
Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George Bush.

Evergreen Review was a U.S.-based literary magazine, known for its experimental fiction,
which was founded by Barney Rosset, publisher of Grove Press. It existed in print from 1957
through 1973, and was re-launched online in 1998. It began as a quarterly in a trade
paperback format (not unlike so many other literary quarterlies of the day), later changing into
a full-sized, glossy magazine, and finally to a mass-market paperback format.
This is a scan of the final issue (and the only issue to my knowledge which has been scanned). It
includes a reprint of a story by J. G. Ballard and an article which discusses Ballard's fiction and
reviews his book Love & Napalm: Export U.S.A. (which was published in 1972 by Grove Press).
THE LOST ONES, the first work of longer fiction by Samuel Beckett to be published
since he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969. Writes Joseph McElroy
in The New York Times Book Review: "Beckett's work continues to be one of the
signal modern ventures in concentrated attention. THE LOST ONES suggests even
more warmly what a great writer Beckett is."
'Dear Hef: That's a pretty spastic operation you got going at Bunny Heaven in
Great Gorge, where you pay guys to water the plastic bushes and a Playmate
might even let you buy her a chocolate milk.' An eyewitness report from admirer
Peter Tauber of Hefner's newest Playboy Club Hotel in New Jersey.

The first issue in 1957 featured an essay by Jean-Paul Sartre and an interview with
the great New Orleans jazz drummer Baby Dodds. It also included a story of Samuel
Beckett's Dante And The Lobster, the first of his many appearances in Evergreen's
pages; these continued through the last issue published.

The second issue was a landmark. A banner across the cover declared "San Francisco Scene,"
and inside held the first collection of work by the new Beat writers - including Lawrence
Ferlinghetti, Gary Snyder, Michael McClure, Philip Whalen, Jack Kerouac (before the publication
of On The Road and Allen Ginsberg, whose HOWL had already been published as a pamphlet by
Ferlinghetti's press, City Lights, and was confiscated by customs officials and faced trial for
obscenity in San Francisco. The issue brought the Beats and Evergreen Review to the forefront of
the American stage. Subsequent issues presented some of the best and most provocative literary
writing of the time; William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch was excerpted side by side with C. Wright
Mills and a section from Paul Goodman's Growing Up Absurd; Edward Albee's first play, Zoo
Story, appeared next to Camus' appeal against capital punishment; a portion of Jean Genet's Our
Lady Of The Flowers ran in the same number as an essay by Octavio Paz. LeRoi Jones (Amirari
Baraka), John Rechy, Robert Coover, Frank O' Hara,
Página 14
Englishzine Juillet.
Richard Brautigan, Hubert Selby, Jr., Kenneth Koch, and Terry Southern were
among those who appeared regularly.
As the fifties turned into the sixties, and the Beat Scene grew into the counterculture, Evergreen
grew as well, always one step ahead of the pack. Timothy Leary, Abbie Hoffman, and the Fugs
shared pages with Jack Kerouac, Mailer, Beckett, and Burroughs, and essays propounding
psychedelic and Black Power appeared between cartoons by Tomi Ungerer, Kliban, and Sine.
Michael O'Donoghue (later of National Lampoon and Saturday Night Live fame) became a regular
contributor and created the classic commix satire Phoebe Zeit-Geist. Politics, sex, and art always
went together. Then Hon. Gerald R. Ford denounced the magazine on the floor of Congress for
printing a lampoon of Richard Nixon beside the photo of a nude. In 1968 Evergreen Review #51,
featuring "The Spirit Of Che" and with a Paul Davis portrait of Che Guevera on the cover so
inflamed anti-Castro Cubans that they bombed Evergreen offices.
Evergreen published writing that was literally counter to the culture, and if it was sexy, so
much the better. In the context of the time, sex was politics, and the powers-that-be made
the suppression of sexuality a political issue. The court battles that Grove Press fought for
the legal publication of Lady Chatterly's Lover, Tropic Of Cancer, and Naked Lunch, and
for the legal distribution of the film I Am Curious: Yellow, spilled onto the pages of
Evergreen Review, and in 1964, an issue of Evergreen itself was confiscated in New York
State by the Nassau County District Attorney on obscenity charges.
All of this was done on a shoestring budget by a tiny staff. Barney Rosset started the
magazine with editor Don Allen and Fred Jordan, who was nominally the business manager in
its early days. Richard Seaver joined the editorial team with the ninth issue, and Don Allen
stepped back to become a contributing editor. Publication increased from quarterly to
bimonthly to, in the late sixties, monthly, and the format changed from trade paperback to a
full-sized, glossy magazine attaining a subscription base of some 40, 000 copies and a
newsstand circulation of 1000,000. The final issue, number 96, came out in 1973. Evergreen
was more than another literary magazine. It was the voice of a movement that helped to
change the attitudes and prejudices of the culture at large through the language of art - and
succeeded. It was always damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead.
The original Evergreen Review ceased publication in 1973, but the magazine was
revived in 1998 in an online edition edited by founder Barney Rosset and Astrid Rosset.
The online edition features flashbacks to previous Evergreen Review editions, as well as
debuts by contemporary writers such as Dennis Nurkse, Giannina Braschi, and Regina
Dereiva. ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Sata Illustrated was a science fiction fanzine by Bill Pearson and Dan Adkins. It was
published first by Dan Adkins (when he was in the Air Force and was base illustrator and
was bored…) and then by Bill Pearson and Dan Adkins and later by Bill Pearson alone.

Englishzine Juillet.
The first issue appeared in 1956. It was reproduced using a ditto machine. Sata featured
weird fiction, comics, and illustrations, with an emphasis on lots of Illustrations, since both
editors were artists. After 6 issues had been released Adkins left the zine and Pearson
carried on without him. 15 issues were released, the last in February 1964.
Fiction was by Bob Leman, Charles L. Morris, and Bob Warner, among others. Articles
were by Larry Shaw among others.
Artwork was contributed by Esmond Adams, George Barr, Robert E. Gilbert, Larry
Ivie, Ken Kellard, Bill Pearson, Andy Reiss, and others.
On his website, Steve Stiles writes; "Perhaps few people remember Dan's activities
in s.f. fanzine fandom, but in the late fifties he and Bill Pearson were producing the
most attractive dittoed fanzine, Sata Illustrated, that I've ever seen --a fanzine that
was instrumental in getting me into fandom."

by Robert E. Howard (creator of Conan the Barbarian).
In 1976, after the family had moved to West Linn, Oregon, Dikty founded the
specialty publisher Starmont House, which published non-fiction about the science
fiction field. At the time of his death in 1991 at the age of 71, Dikty and May had
moved in Mercer Island, Washington; his daughter, Barbara Dikty, had already been
made President of Starmont House, Inc. by then.
