Homer Eon Flint

Homer Eon Flint (born as Homer Eon Flindt; 1888 –1924) was an American writer of pulp science fiction novels and short stories.

He began working as a scenarist for silent films in 1912 (reportedly at his wife's insistence). In 1918, he published "The Planeteer" in ''All-Story Weekly''. His "Dr. Kinney" stories were reprinted by Ace Books in 1965, and with Austin Hall he co-wrote the novel ''The Blind Spot''.

He died in 1924 under mysterious circumstances, his body found at the bottom of a canyon underneath a stolen taxi.

His son was Max Hugh Flindt (1915–2004), the co-founder of The Ancient Astronaut Society. With Otto Binder, he co-authored ''Mankind – Child of the Stars'' in 1974. He also had a daughter, Bonnie Palmer. Provided by Wikipedia
