Lyndon Hardy

Lyndon Hardy (born 1941) is an author, prankster and grandfather.

He became interested in fantasy while wandering through the fringes of fandom when he was at Caltech. In addition to reading and writing, he has sporadic bursts of enthusiasm for collecting stamps and playing cards. As of yet, he has not figured out a plot line for a stamp collector who saves the world.

While at CalTech, in 1960 he organized and led what has been called the best college prank ever pulled – The Rose Bowl Card Stunt Caper.

He lives with his wife, Joan, in Torrance, California. Together they have two daughters and four living grandchildren.
