Wollheim was born on this date, October 1, in 1914.\u00a0 Although he wrote some fiction for the pulps, his greatest impact was as an editor, first at Avon, then Ace, and finally under his own label at DAW books.<\/p>\n<p>Wollheim was responsible for bringing Edgar Rice Burroughs back into print, publishing Tolkien in paperback, and played a significant role in the emergence of mass market paperbacks and paperback anthologies.<\/p>\n<p>He did like pulp, and DAW&#8217;s line until the time of his death reflected that.\u00a0 He published early work by such authors as C. J.
