Autobiographies of Isaac Asimov information


Isaac Asimov (c. 1920–1992) wrote three volumes of autobiography. In Memory Yet Green (1979) and In Joy Still Felt (1980)[1][2] were a two-volume work, covering his life up to 1978. The third volume, I. Asimov: A Memoir (1994),[3] published after his death, was not a sequel but a new work which covered his whole life. This third book won a Hugo Award.[4]

Before writing these books, Asimov also published three anthologies of science fiction stories which contained autobiographical accounts of his life in the introductions to the stories: The Early Asimov (1972), Before the Golden Age (1974), and Buy Jupiter and Other Stories (1975).
