Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on March 24, 1946)

Happy birthday, Andrew Porter! May your day be filled with more excitement than a plot twist in *The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction*. You've edited worlds beyond imagination and sold articles to Publishers Weekly, Omni, and even The New York Times—clearly proving that reality can sometimes rival fiction.

Here's hoping this year brings you fewer deadlines (we know that's fantasy), endless inspiration (science-approved!), and plenty of laughter. After all, someone who has navigated galaxies of manuscripts deserves a celebration worthy of an interstellar bestseller. Cheers to another chapter filled with success—and perhaps fewer typos!
