Paul Preuss (born March 7, 1942, in Albany, Georgia) is an American writer of science fiction and science articles, who also works as a science consultant for film companies. He is the author of numerous stand-alone novels as well as novels in Arthur C. Clarke's Venus Prime series, based upon incidents, characters, and places from Clarke's short stories.

Preuss was a consulting editor for the six-book Dr. Bones series (1988–1989) published by Ace Books.[2]

Personal life

Preuss was born in Albany, Georgia. His father, who worked in the Air Force was stationed at Turner Field. In the first few years of his life Paul had lived in Georgia, Texas, New Mexico, Hawaii and Virginia. The Preusses settled down in Albuquerque. Paul's father began working at Sandia Base testing nuclear bombs. The scientists Paul met during these formative years were an influence on the types of characters he would write about 40 years later. Paul went to school at Yale, where he met and befriended Sidney Mintz as well as Jean Rouch.[3]
