Stephen Bartholomew was a science-fiction writer active in the 1950s and 1960s. Surviving catalog and library records connect his name with short fiction from that period, and works such as Last Resort and The Hermit of Mars have remained available through public-domain archives.
His fiction sits comfortably in mid-century magazine science fiction: compact, imaginative, and focused on pressure-cooker situations, outer-space settings, and big speculative ideas. While detailed biographical information appears to be scarce, his work has continued to circulate among readers of classic pulp and Golden Age science fiction.
Because reliable personal details are limited in the sources I could confirm, it is safest to remember him primarily through the stories themselves and the era they represent.
