    Extractions: GENERAL LINKS Born Octavia Estelle Butler on June 22, 1947, in Pasadena, California. She earned an Associates degree at Pasadena City College (A.A., 1968), and attended California State University, and the University of California at Los Angeles, the Open Door Program of the Screen Writers' Guild of America and the Clarion SF Writers' Workshop. Encouraged by master science fiction author Harlan Ellison, she began her writing career in 1970 and made her genre debut with Crossover (1971), the first of many works in which she weaves together African-American history, future soceties and a highly intellectual exploration of the alien perspective. Although she has remained within the genre, Octavia Butler, along with Samuel Delany , is one of the two African American writers of note at the top of science fiction. The first of her novels, Patternmaster (1976), was the beginning of her five-volume Patternist series about an elite group of mentally linked telepaths ruled by Doro, a 4,000-year-old immortal African. Other novels in the series are Mind of My Mind Survivor Wild Seed (1980) which won the James Tiptree Award, and

    Extractions: Photo by Miriam Berkley Rites Writer: Octavia E. Butler Novelist and short-story writer Octavia Butler defies categories By J. Douglas Allen Taylor I saw Octavia Butler at a book-reading and question-and-answer session in San Francisco a few years ago. This was after the success of the Xenogenesis trilogy ( Dawn Imago and Adulthood Rites ) and her winning of some of science-fiction's top writing awards but before her receipt of the MacArthur "genius" grant helped introduce the author's work to a larger audience. In those middle years, Butler was feeling more than a little pigeonholed. She did not really think of herself as a science-fiction writer, she explained, but more as a chronicler of the human heart using science fiction as a tool of revelation. The publishers and the reading public had no trouble looking at Margaret Atwood in that way. Why not Octavia Butler? She was being a little disingenuous, I think. Judging from the type of questions Butler got that night, many of her readers are less science-fiction fans and more feminists, with a strong African American contingent (not surprising, considering the fact many of Butler's heroines are strong, African American women). So she was already bridging many less-traveled gaps. And, after all, Butler did start out her career submitting to all those Weird Science and Isaac Asimov magazines.
