Arthur Feldman

Arthur Feldman is a hard-to-trace science-fiction author whose confirmed published work includes "The Mathematicians," a short story that appeared in Amazing Stories in the October–November 1953 issue.

That story went on to have a longer life than its original magazine appearance might suggest. It was later included in Isaac Asimov and Groff Conklin's anthology Fifty Short Science Fiction Tales (1963), and it has also appeared in other genre reprints and translations.

Very little biographical information about Feldman appears to be readily documented in major public sources, so the surviving record centers more on the work than on the person. Even so, the continued reprinting of "The Mathematicians" suggests a writer whose idea was strong enough to outlast the era in which it was first published.
