Harry Bates (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, October 9, 1900 - September 1981) was an American science fiction editor and writer. He was born Hiram Gilmore Bates III. Bates began working for William Clayton in the 1920s as the editor of adventure pulp magazines. When Clayton proposed a period adventure magazine, Bates suggested several alternatives that he felt would be easier to edit and "Astounding Science Fiction" was the result. Wikipedia
