	Locus Online: SF News May 1998
		Bixby was a prolific short story writer whose work included Westerns as well as SF, fantasy, and horror.
		Bixby used several pseudonyms for his magazine stories, including Jay B. Drexel, D. Lewis, Harry Neal, and Alger Rome, the latter in collaboration with Algis Budrys.
		Bixby may be best known to media-oriented SF fans as the writer or co-writer of several of the original Star Trek episodes, including ''Mirror, Mirror'' and ''Requiem for Methuselah'', and as co-writer of the 1966 film Fantastic Voyage (as Jay Lewis Bixby), which was later novelized by Isaac Asimov.

		I'm looking for information about Jerome Bixby, and I thought this might be a good place to turn.
		All I really know is that he wrote the short story "It's a Good Life" on which the episode is based, and that he used to write screenplays for the original Star Trek series ("Mirror, Mirror" being one of his most well-known).
		Jerome Bixby's Anthony is the classic little kid from hell and it's delighted fans for four decades now.

	Gary Westfahl's Bio-Encyclopedia of Science Fiction Film: Jerome Bixby
		Jerome Bixby should be better known than he is, given that his name is attached to a number of noteworthy films and television programs.
		Bixby's second effort for Cahn, Curse of the Faceless Man, transplanted the standard mummy story to Italy, with its titular menace cleverly based on haunting images of the Pompeii residents embalmed by the ashes of Vesuvius.
		Bixby remains most celebrated, of course, for his contributions to the original Star Trek series, which were a mixed bag indeed.

	It! The Terror from Beyond Space (1958)
		Bixby delivers a reasonable script, one that economically constricts the action to a minimal number of sets and keeps it moving tightly along.
		In fact Bixby does so so well that this may be the first spaceboard alien film that takes place within only a 3-4 hour timeframe.
		The creature is cannily kept fairly much to the shadows - which makes it more effectively threatening - and there are some reasonable sequences such as the suspense-filled journey through the outer hatch and the attempt to rescue the blood supplies.

	Positive Liberty » Blog Archive » A Great 20th Century Work - Updated (again!)
		Yesterday, watching the Sci Fi Channel’s Twilight Zone marathon, I was struck by another true masterpiece of 20th century storytelling: Jerome Bixby’s episode “It’s A Good Life.” When literary historians put together the Twentieth Century Reader of great literary encapsulations of 20th century themes, Bixby’s classic story will be among them.
		What’s unique about Bixby’s story is the psychic element: the boy’s family and neighbors must always think happy thoughts, no matter how awful their predicaments.
		In any case, I don’t think Bixby was going for an allegory of either religion or communism.

	Gary Westfahl's Bio-Encyclopedia of Science Fiction Film: Bill Bixby
		Perhaps Bixby happily seized upon the role of a seemingly pleasant man who conceals a raging, amoral demon within; and I am sure that, with the proper makeup, he could have also portrayed the Hulk just as well as muscleman Lou Ferrigno.
		But Bixby was painfully convincing as the lonely, distant drifter with a desperate secret in his eyes.

	"Best Screenwriting Magazine"--LA Times
		The resulting stories, each bearing the stylistic signature of the writer, remain memorable 45 years later.
		Serling's teleplay of Jerome Bixby's "It's a Good Life", where a malicious, omnipotent nine-year-old boy (Billy Mumy) holds a farming community hostage to his whims, is a powerful reminder of the simple, character-based tales with a speculative bent that offset the drama just a few degrees from reality are what The Twilight Zone did best.
		As with previous sets, Marc Scott Zicree's taped interviews for The Twilight Zone Companion (included with season one) shed light on the show's production alongside a variety of commentaries with various cast and crew members (this season includes a reading of George Clayton Johnson's unfilmed ending to "A Game of Pool" to boot).
