About the author
G. L. Vandenburg appears to have been a mid-20th-century science fiction writer whose work showed up in Amazing Science Fiction Stories in the late 1950s. Confirmed stories from that period include Brief Hunger (1957), Look-Alike Army (1957), Moon Glow (1958), and Jubilation, U.S.A. (1959).
Modern reprints and audiobook collections consistently describe the fiction as quirky, funny, and relaxed in tone, which fits the surviving stories most often associated with the name. Martian V. F. W. is one of the best-known titles, and other works connected with Vandenburg include The Observers and Jubilation, U.S.A.
Very little reliable biographical information about the person behind the byline is readily available from the sources I could confirm, so it is safest to remember G. L. Vandenburg through the stories themselves: light, inventive pulp-era science fiction with a sense of humor.
