	John Ford - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Ford (February 1, 1894 – August 31, 1973) was one of the most accomplished American film directors of the 1930s to 1960s, known particularly as a director of the Westerns, although his tributes to the veterans of World War II and Americana are also equally effective.
		John A. Feeney's grandmother, Barbara Morris, was said to be a member of a local (impoverished) gentry family, the Morris's of Spiddal, presently headed by Redmond Morris, 3rd Lord Killanin.
		John Augustine and Abbey arrived in Boston and Portland within a few days of each other in May and June 1872, were married in 1875, and became American citizens three years later.

	Article: Interview: John M. Ford, by Mary Anne Mohanraj and Fred Bush
		John M. Ford: It depends on what you mean by "completely comprehensible." I don't think anyone wants a reader to be completely lost -- certainly not to the point of giving up -- but there's something to be said for a book that isn't instantly disposable, that rewards a second reading.
		JMF: What I think the writers mostly got right about the Net was the power of access to information -- the fact that, with laptops and satellite links, it is no longer possible to seal a location off from communication, and we are having to rethink what "privacy" means on a very basic level.
		JMF: Well, it's an adventure story, and a Bildungsroman, of course, but there was also the intention to describe a culture that had been seen in rather narrow terms.

	Heat of Fusion by John M. Ford
		John M. Ford is a writer whose work is well-known in the science fiction, fantasy and horror genres.
		Ford is steeped in the traditions of the science fiction field and, like Poul Anderson and Isaac Asimov (to name only two of many), is occasionally drawn to the mystery and thriller.
		But Ford, like others in the 1980s, considers the metaphorical implications of scientific ideas and here examines not only the character of the scientist but the metaphorical and emotional reverberations of the scientist's work.

	John M. Ford, The Last Hot Time (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Ford won the World Fantasy Award for his Renaissance-era historical fantasy The Dragon Waiting, published in 1983.
		The Last Hot Time is not, in fact, a Bordertown novel, but the world Ford creates bears a striking resemblance to that created by Windling & Co. It features a human world affected by some great disaster, accompanied by the return of elves and magic into contact with the everyday world.
		Ford actually makes a couple of references to Bordertown, which fans of that series should recognize immediately, but it's a tribute to his skill that the novel never feels imitative, but distinctly his own and fresh despite the familiarity of the basic concept.

	Chromatic Aberration by John M. Ford
		John M. Ford is equally adept at fantasy and science fiction, but is known more for the variety and richness of his works than for his rigorous use of science.
		He is impatient, it seems, with conventional approaches; in such stories as this one, he applies the techniques of and exploits a conventional setting of the school of magic realism to embody the idea of paradigm shifts (from contemporary philosophy of science).
		What we have here is a story at the very fringe of science fiction that teases at genre definition, yet plays by the rules as Ford perceives them.

	The SF Site Featured Review: The Dragon Waiting
		All of this is smartly done, as often through suggestion as narrative statement, and there are elements to the story that linger long after its final denouement, begging for further reflection or another reading.
		Episodic in structure, Ford densely condenses his narrative without loss in content or narrative momentum, and in a manner that might benefit emulation by some of the more garrulous practitioners currently penning fantasy and alternate history.
		The only moment in which this approach fails somewhat is in the second section entitled "Companions of the Storm," where it may be argued that the meeting of the protagonists is a trifle too coincidental, and that the events which follow appear comparatively sketchy and digressive from the rest of the text.

		Ford began directing in 1917 after an apprenticeship with his brother Francis.
		Although Ford set films in other parts of the country or world, including several in Ireland, he returned to the Western repeatedly throughout his career.
		These films merge a beautiful pictorial style, using the buttes and mesas almost as architectural features, with stories that frequently deal with the nature of military command.

		Haunting, puzzling, even unsettling and deliberately obscure, this improvisatory jazzlike riff of good and evil in the context of a most unusual growing-up story is bittersweet as first love and loss, a minor-key elegy for the death of youth and innocence.
		Ford depicts a modern-day world inhabited by supernatural creatures who enjoy fast cars, hard liquor, and the sound of money even as they keep alive the old traditions of fairy curses and otherworldly magic.
		Ford's signature style is to leave much unsaid, to assume the readers' intelligence and let the reader draw their own conclusions from the hints Ford provides.

		Listen close, for I'm about to tell you a story that sounds familiar, yet is as different from what you know as rain is from snow.
		For all its familiarity, The Last Hot Time by John M. Ford is -not- Bordertown.
		This is a far step removed from the down and dirty music-punk youth culture atmosphere of the Bordertown series, delivering an entirely different story and tone altogether.

		John M. Ford's award winning "Growing Up Weightless" is a familiar theme for him: coming-of-age during a period of change in society.
		As usual, his story is multi-layered, and requires an intelligent reader to decipher the hints and allusions that Ford places throughout the text.
		Ford never descends to the device of having characters explain something to each other that they would obviously already know, i.e.

		But it is the book which could have been the sequel, had Paramount granted John M. Ford free rein to write another about the Klingon culture he had so meticulously developed in his first Trek novel.
		Author John M. Ford is creative, but I had great difficulty keeping his characters straight.
		This is Ford's second (and apparently last) STAR TREK novel, following up his outstanding "The Final Reflection." But, unlike that deadly serious book, Ford boldly takes us where no TREK novel has gone before, the final frontier of humour.
