	DONALD WANDREI AND FAMILY: An Inventory of Their Papers at the Minnesota Historical Society
		Donald Wandrei was born on April 20, 1908 in St. Paul, Minnesota to Albert C. (1872-1942) and Jeannette Adelaide (1878-1972) Wandrei.
		Connie Colestock and Suzanne Wandrei, undated and 1940-1956, 1972.
		Donald's later letters were written during a trip Jeannette took to the West Coast (Jan.-April 1947), during Donald's second stay in New York City (1947-1950), and during his subsequent move to Hollywood (1950-1952).

	Review - Colossus: The Collected Science Fiction of Donald Wandrei - Philip J. Rahman and Dennis Weiler, Editors
		New to this edition is a revised and updated biographic introduction by Richard L. Tierney, two never before published stories, the author's own preface (or at least what survives of it), and a photo gallery of rare shots of the author and his associates.
		In the 1930s, Donald Wandrei was one of the most famous science fiction pulp writers.
		Wandrei found that he could not adjust his writing to suit Campbell, and, by the 1940s, Wandrei basically gave up full-time writing to concentrate on running the specialty publisher Arkham House, which he co-founded.

		Wandrei's early poetry and fiction is impressive and visionary.
		Farnsworth Wright, upon reading Wandrei's first submission to the magazine ("The Twilight of Time, published as "The Red Brain"), is said to have thrust the manuscript to co-worker E. Hoffmann Price and commanded, "God damn it, read that!" Wandrei's fiction output slowed gradually throughout his life, and was replaced by increasing involvement in litigation.
		The last years of Wandrei's life were spent in a legal battle with the estate of August Derleth over the publishing house they had founded together.

	Amazon.com: Don't Dream: The Collected Horror and Fantasy Fiction of Donald Wandrei: Books: Donald Wandrei,Philip J. ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		Wandrei (1908^-87) is best known in sf and fantasy circles for his long litigation over the rights to the H. Lovecraft estate, but he deserves to be remembered for much more.
		Wandrei captures the feeling of a dream much better than Dunsany or Lovecraft, but his forays into the Dreamlands are brief excursions, not well-plotted epics in the tradtion of the other two authors.
		Donald Wandrei thought of himself as primarily a poet and used poetic language to excellent effect.

	Arkham House - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Arkham House is a weird fiction specialty publishing house founded in Sauk City, Wisconsin in 1939 by August Derleth and Donald Wandrei.
		Among his correspondents were Arkham House founders, Derleth and Wandrei.
		Arkham House also published fiction from several of Lovecraft's contemporaries, including Robert E. Howard, Frank Belknap Long, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Bloch, and Derleth himself; classic genre fiction by authors such as William Hope Hodgson, Algernon Blackwood, H.

		August Derleth (1909-1971) is most famous to Weird Tales enthusiasts as the co-founder (with Donald Wandrei) of Arkham House, the publishing company which brought Lovecraft, and later most of the Weird Tales circle, to the public.
		Donald Wandrei (1908-1987), startlingly imaginative young writer, gained later noteriety by joining with fellow author and Lovecraft correspondent August Derleth to create Arkham House Publishers.

	The SF Site: Fedogan & Bremer
		However, Joseph E. Fedogan and Felix Bremer's original plan was to publish the works of Donald Wandrei, an original Arkham House partner, whose estate was willing to let them bring his material back into print.
		They found a wealth of material in the Wandrei estate, consider seriously titles that have been announced and then abandoned by other publishers, and carefully chose work by new talent.
		It appears this may be but the first of several volumes of Wandrei's fiction for the editor has subtitled it "Vol I of the Collected Fantasies of Howard Wandrei." Let's hope so.

	About Arkham House
		These words of reflection penned by August Derleth some 20 years after the creation of Arkham House (AH) show the initial purpose of AH, but they also foretell what was to become of this now historical icon in the world of small pulp publishers.
		AH not only thrives today as a result of the vision of August Derleth and Donald Wandrei; the company brings the past alive through the works of Lovecraft, Derleth, E.
		In 1942, Wandrei was inducted into the U.S. Army and was forced to hastily sever ties with AH.

	Sixty Years of Arkham House - R A I N T A X I o n l i n e
		Based in Sauk City, Wisconsin, Arkham House was the brainchild of August Derleth and Donald Wandrei, both friends and correspondents of H. Lovecraft.
		After returning from war, Wandrei began to edit collections of Lovecraft's letters, which were eventually published in five volumes.
		Lovecraft's stories and novels, elaborate, multi-layered tales of the supernatural (though Lovecraft preferred the label "weird fiction"; his personal philosophy posited that there was no supernatural, only human inability to perceive the handiwork of vastly powerful alien beings who ruled the universe), were to become solid successes for Arkham House.

	HPLA - Mysteries of Time and Spirit
		For Lovecraft’s part, he preserved nearly all Wandrei’s letters (aside from his first) for the first several years of their relationship, but as their letters became relatively infrequent in the 1930s, did not keep Wandrei’s missives consistently.
		Although Wandrei visited Lovecraft twice in Providence—in 1927 and 1932—and met him briefly in New York on several occasions in the 1930s, their relationship was largely confined to paper; but despite its occasionally sporadic nature, it remained strong to the end.
		Lovecraft and Wandrei knew that they were members of a very small circle of cosmic visionaries, and that each required the encouragement of the other to maintain his unique perspective on literature and life.

		I do not believe it occurred to HPL that there was any prospect of his work being brought out by a professional publishing firm; and from this angle he would have felt that he was imposing a thankless and futile task on Belknap, Loveman, or any of the older friends.
		With Derleth absent, Donald Wandrei would probably have gnashed his teeth helplessly as "the Barlow pest" continued to exercise control of the Lovecraft literary estate, under a policy which would most probably been one of benign neglect due to the turbulent conditions of Barlow's life during this time and his ever-increasing interest in Mexico.
		Of course, the idea of issuing a volume of Lovecraft's letters was largely Wandrei's, but whether he would have continued in Derleth's absence given his distaste for Barlow is questionable; in any event his military service would have ended this project.

		Mysteries of Time and Spirit is a superb and wholly interesting collection of letters between H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) and Donald Wandrei (1908-1987), the latter being one of the co-founders (with Auggie Derleth) of Arkham House.
		Were it not for HPL's mammoth correspondence, writers like Frank Belknap Long, Clark Ashton Smith, E. Hoffmann Price, August Derleth, and Donald Wandrei would never have gotten to know one another and, very possibly, might not have persued writing careers with nearly as much...

	DON'T DREAM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		This volume gathers together all of Donald Wandrei's horror and fantasy fiction.
		Besides such classic tales as "The Painted Mirror" and "It Will Grow on You," Don't Dream reprints for the first time Wandrei's earliest horror story in WEIRD TALES, "Shadow of a Nightmare" and his droll fantasy "Don't Dream" from the classic pulp UNKNOWN.
		Wandrei's versatility in horror writing is amply demonstrated in the dream-like fantasy of "The Woman at the Window," the ghostly chills of "Uneasy Lie the Drowned," the disquieting psychological horror of "The Eye and the Finger," and the all-out, tommy-gun blazing pulp thrills of "The Destroying Horde."

	Don't Dream by Donald Wandrei
		After the death in 1987 of legendary pulp writer and publisher Wandrei, his editors at Fedogan and Bremer collected his SF in Colossus (1989).
		In a companion volume to Colossus: The Collected Science Fiction of Donald Wandrei (Fedogan and Bremer, 1989), editors Philip J. Rahman and Dennis E. Weiler have rescued from obscurity Wandrei's published and unpublished horror and fantasy short fiction, prose poems, essays, and marginalia.
		While some of his pseudo-science is now dated, Wandrei's imaginative use of language renders his fiction worthy of new reading 60 years after it was first published.

	Eldritch Dark Forum :: Donald Wandrei Novel?
		In the meanwhile, be sure to read Wandrei's COLOSSUS and DON'T DREAM, since he was another master of the cosmic tale of terror as well as a poet in his own right.
		For reasons unknown to me, Wandrei appears to have devolved into a reclusive, misanthropic alcoholic who became obsessed with, and addicted to, the drama of litigation.
		In a letter to CAS, Lovecraft mentioned Wandrei as being (along with CAS, Bernard Dwyer, and HPL himself) among the few individuals he knew who possessed a genuine sense of the cosmic, and that endorsement alone makes his work worth reading, from my perspective.

		Arkham House was formed in 1938 by Donald Wandrei and August Derleth in order to preserve the works of H. Lovecraft (1890 - 1937).

		The gorgeous cover art of a wizard-like fellow posing alongside a beautiful young lady with a gun in her hand appealed to me instantly.
		Created in the 1934 for the editors of Clues magazine, Ivy Frost and his beautiful assistant, Jean Moray, were the creations of wordsmith Wandrei.
		No stranger to pulps, Wandrei had cut his literary teeth on horror yarns for Weird Tales and science fiction for Astounding Stories before coming over to the more lucrative mystery field.

		The assembling and editing of the letters of the late Howard Phillips Lovecraft has taken August Derleth and Donald Wandrei more than a quarter of a century.
		Lovecraft wrote so voluminously to his correspondents that comprehensiveness in the published letters was neither desirable nor possible, and the editors found it necessary to edit and re-edit time and again.

		While Wandrei managed to stay out of the hoosegow during the years he spent writing in New York, he found plenty of other trouble to get into, mostly involving women and alcohol.
