Forrest J. Ackerman is an inspiration for many of us to make scifi, horror, and pulp our careers. He is a fan, a pro and a helluva nice guy. Through his editorship of FAMOUS MONSTERS and his tours of his collection, Forry has reached out to everyone with a kind word and a slice of wisdom topped with inspiration.
