Frank Herbert, in full Frank Patrick Herbert, (born October 8, 1920, Tacoma, Washington, U.S.—died February 11, 1986, Madison, Wisconsin), American science-fiction writer noted as the author of the best-selling Dune series of futuristic novels, a group of highly complex works that explore such themes as ecology, human evolution, the consequences of genetic manipulation, and mystical and psychic possibilities. Until 1972, when he began to write full-time, Herbert held a variety of jobs while writing socially engaged science fiction. He was working as a journalist when his reputation was made with the publication of the epic Dune (1965), which was translated into 14 languages and sold some 12 million copies, more than any other science-fiction book in history; ironically, Dune had been rejected by 20 publishers before it was published. An abortive film version was attempted in 1975 by Chilean-French director Alejandro Jodorowsky; that effort was chronicled in the documentary Jodorowsky’s Dune (2013). Dino De Laurentiis purchased the rights in 1976, and an adaptation was filmed by David Lynch (1984). A television miniseries was released in 2000, followed by another miniseries (2003) that covered the events in the second and third Dune books. The novels in the Dune series include Dune Messiah (1969), Children of Dune (1976), God-Emperor of Dune (1981), Heretics of Dune (1984), and Chapterhouse: Dune (1985). In the late 1990s Herbert’s son Brian began collaborating with Kevin J. Anderson on a series of prequels to the Dune chronicles, employing some of the elder Herbert’s notes. Dune: House Atreides was released in 1999 and was followed by Dune: House Harkonnen (2000) and Dune: House Corrino (2001). Other entries include Dune: The Butlerian Jihad (2002), Dune: The Machine Crusade (2003), Dune: The Battle of Corrin (2004), Hunters of Dune (2006), Sandworms of Dune (2007), The Winds of Dune (2009), Sisterhood of Dune (2012), and Mentats of Dune (2014).Included among Herbert’s more than two dozen novels are the highly acclaimed Dragon in the Sea (1956), The Green Brain (1966), The Santaroga Barrier (1968), The Heaven Makers (1968), The God Makers (1972), and The Dosadi Experiment (1977).
