Let's not forget Rachel Carson. Though trained as a biologist, she worked as
a technical editor/writer while she was writing the books that changed the
world's view on ecology and the environment. She definitely gets one of my
votes, as well as the ones I mentioned earlier.

Subject: Famous Technical Writers - A Compilation
Hi,
Thanks for the many responses I received regarding the subject of
"famous technical writers." Since I've received so many wonderful
responses, I decided to post them on a web page rather than
compile all of them and send out one horrendously long email.
You can see a compilation of the responses I received at http://www.iwannabefamous.com/technicalwriters.html.
If you can't get to the web, please email me and I'll forward it to you
in an email.
Regards,
Bill Hartzer
