Stu Shiffman
While he occasionally thinks that he may be Gray Lensman Stu hunting zwilniks in the far-future Second Galazy, swashbuckling Chevalier Etienne Marinnier evading the Cardinal's guards through the cobbled alleyways of French Mannahattes (POD 1664, wait for it), or a post-Civil War special agent of the U.S. Secret Service travelling the Western rails in his private railway carriage; alas, he is not. He is also not pulp hero Doc Shiffman, Man of Titanium, with headquarters on the 100th floor of the Imperial State Building.

*sigh*

Stu Shiffman of the Roscoe Page, was born and raised in New York City, and has now lived in Seattle for 16 years. He is a judge for the Sidewise Award for Alternate History.

Stu is a Sherlockian, member of the Sound of the Baskervilles scion society of the Baker Street Irregulars and the online Hounds of the Internet (where he is "Hugo Oberstein"). Stu is mesmerized by funny animals and cartoon animation, British folk and folk rock (like Steeleye Span or Battlefield Band), klezmer music, archaeology, dinosaurs, palaeontology in general, and alternate history.
