"Ray Bradbury, mostly known for his work in Fahrenheit 451, was actually a much broader producer of works than most of us have thought. Throughout his lifetime he wrote over 500 stories, plays, screenplays, radio, music, comic books, and poems (Wolfe 61). But an argument about his works has been debated ever since he became a prominent writer. Was he in fact one of the first Science Fiction writers of all time?"
