Raymond Douglas Bradbury dit Ray Bradbury, né le 22 août 1920 à Waukegan dans l’Illinois et mort le 5 juin 2012 (à 91 ans) à Los Angeles en Californie, est un écrivain américain, référence du genre de l’anticipation. Il est particulièrement connu pour ses Chroniques martiennes, écrites en 1950, L’Homme illustré, recueil de nouvelles publié en 1951, et surtout Fahrenheit 451, roman dystopique publié en 1953. Ray Douglas Bradbury naît le 22 août 1920 à Waukegan (Illinois, É.-U.) dans un milieu modeste, de Leonard Spaulding Bradbury, technicien, et de son épouse Esther Marie Moberg, d’origine suédoise; son grand-père et son arrière-grand-père paternels étaient éditeurs de journaux. Il descend par son père d’une des sorcières de Salem. Bradbury lit et écrit durant toute sa jeunesse, passant beaucoup de temps à la bibliothèque de Waukegan. Ses romans Dandelion Wine (Le Vin de l’été), Something wicked this way comes (La foire des ténèbres) et Farewell Summer dépeignent d’ailleurs cette ville de Waukegan comme «la Ville Verte» et sont en partie autobiographiques. Il attribue son habitude d’écrire quotidiennement au jour où en 1932 un amuseur de foire, M. Electroteck, l’a touché avec une lame électrifiée, faisant se dresser ses cheveux sur la tête, en criant «Vis pour toujours!». La famille Bradbury vit à Tucson, en Arizona, en 1926-27 et 1932-33, mais comme le père continue son travail, ils retournent à Waukegan et s’installent finalement à Los Angeles en 1934. Ray a alors quatorze ans. À l’âge de 17 ans, il publie sa première nouvelle de science-fiction, Script, dans une revue spécialisée. Ray Bradbury obtient son diplôme à l’école secondaire de Los Angeles en 1938 à 18 ans, mais choisit de ne pas aller à l’université. Au lieu de cela, il vend des journaux au coin de South Norton Avenue et Olympic Boulevard. Il continue cependant à se cultiver à la bibliothèque locale et, influencé par les héros de science-fiction tels que Flash Gordon et Buck Rogers, il commence à écrire des nouvelles de science-fiction. Ces dernières sont publiées dans des fanzines dès 1938. En novembre 1941, est publié Le Pendule, sa première publication rémunérée — il gagne 15 $ — dans le pulp magazine Super Science Stories. Il a profité de la recommandation de Robert A. Heinlein, rencontré à la Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society (LASF). Il devient écrivain à temps plein à la fin de l’année 1942. Son premier livre, Dark Carnival, une collection de courts récits, est publié en 1947 par Arkham House. Cette même année il se marie avec Marguerite McClure (1922–2003); le couple aura quatre filles. ... Source: Article "Ray Bradbury" de Wikipédia en français, soumis à la licence CC-BY-SA 3.0.
