We all know Lawrence O'Donnell from MSNBC and the show The West Wing [View all]

But did anyone here know that the name "Lawrence O'Donnell" was also a pseudonym for the writing pair Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore?

I didn't realize that until I was reading an anthology of early Science Fiction stories and one was attributed to the pair writing under that name!

"Vintage Season" is probably one of the most famous - published in 1946, it was later loosely adapted into the 1992 American film Timescape, also titled Grand Tour: Disaster in Time, starring Jeff Daniels.
