While it is true that Fritz Leiber, Sr. was an actor, it is also true that
Fritz Leiber, Jr.'s son, Justin, has written sf. He has at least one novel
alone and (I think) one novel written with his father.
I can't think of any other parent-child sf pairs, but there are quite a few
husband-wife pairs, with separate careers or in collaboration. Off-hand:
L. Sprague de Camp & Catherine de Camp
Joan Vinge & Vernor Vinge
Joan Vinge & Jim Frenkel (Bluejay Books)
Spider & (once) Jeanne Robinson
Betty & Ian Ballantine (Ballantine Books)
Damon Knight & Kate Wilhelm
Lisa Tuttle & Charles Platt (or whoever it was she married)
C. L. Moore & Ed Hamilton (ditto)
Don & Elsie Wollheim (DAW Books. Now daughter too)
Paul & Genevieve Linebarger (as Cordwainer Smith. About half were written
by PMAL by himself, and half with his wife.)
Carol Emshwiller & Ed Emshwiller (famous 50's artist as Emsh, now artsy
filmmaker)
Isaac Asimov & J. O. Jeppson (sp?) (this may not count, as it's not clear
that her book would have been published had she not been married to him)
me and my wife Leslye
Many other such couples, esp. from Clarion. Please expand my list.pete@stc.UUCP (Peter Kendell) (09/24/85)

I believe Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore were married and collaborated on SF.
Anyone know about this?

How about Lester Delray and his late wife Evelyn and his present wife, Judy, I think, who is an editor and my have some publishing credits I suspect. > C. L. Moore & Ed Hamilton (ditto) I may be wrong but I think she was once married to Cyril Kornbluth, although that doesn't rule out her being married to Hamilton too. > Isaac Asimov & J. O. Jeppson (sp?)

He gets very irate when people say things like that. He stated very firmly in his autobiography that he exerted no influence to get his wife's novels published. -- Joel Upchurch Perkin-Elmer Southern Development Center 2486 Sand Lake Road/ Orlando, Florida 32809/ (305)850-1031 {decvax!ucf-cs, ihnp4!pesnta, vax135!petsd}!peora!joel
