HP Lovecraft Author & Editor

H.P. Lovecraft (Howard Phillips Lovecraft) was an American author known for his tales of cosmic horror and fantasy. Though a lifelong lover of science, Lovecraft was in too poor of health to ever attend college and so became a ghostwriter. He started publishing his short horror stories in 1923 in the magazine Weird Tales. Some of his most popular works include his Cthulhu Mythos series, "The Shadow of Innsmouth" (1931), and "At the Mountains of Madness" (1931). Unfortunately, Lovecraft’s fame did not rise until after his death in 1937.
