As of December 24th, 2021, we are happy to report that negotiations following the copyright recapture of studio grants and licenses to Warner Bros. regarding author rights to “Oceans 11” were successful. Thank you to all involved. As mentioned elsewhere on this website, George created the story (crediting co-author Jack Golden Russell for his contributions) and the screenplay on which the 1960 and 2001 films “Ocean’s Eleven” were based. This was the first story and screenplay he ever attempted to write and which has now become a billion dollar Hollywood franchise. We looked forward to further interest and development from the studio in the future.

The definitive edition of All of Us Are Dying and Other Stories, the massive retrospective from the legendary fictioneer George Clayton Johnson newly expanded with selections not included in the original hardcover edition.

Over 500 pages of masterful storytelling by one of the world’s most gifted authors.

The bestselling dystopian novel written by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson that inspired the 1970s science-fiction classic starring Michael York, Jenny Agutter, and Richard Jordan. In 2116, it is against the law to live beyond the age of twenty-one years. When the crystal flower in the palm of your hand turns from red to black, you have reached your Lastday and you must report to a Sleepshop for processing. But the human will to survive is strong—stronger than any mere law.

Logan 3 is a Sandman, an enforcer who hunts down those Runners who refuse to accept Deep Sleep. The day before Logan’s palm flower shifts to black, a Runner accidentally reveals that he was racing toward a goal: Sanctuary. With this information driving him forward, Logan 3 assumes the role of the hunted and becomes a Runner.

July 10, 1929 – December 25, 2015
George Clayton Johnson passed away today at 12:46 PM PST. December 25, 2015. Christmas Day. Thanks to everyone for the prayers and support, George lived a good life and an interesting life! Condolences to his son Paul, daughter Judy – and his loving and devoted wife of 62 years, Lola. It is a great honor to represent George and his work. It is a higher honor to be called his friend.

From The Independent, London, England:

“His agent Whitt Brantley told The Independent that a remake of Logan’s Run is in the works and that Johnson had been developing a follow-up, Jessica’s Run. “George always believed the original novel needed a third act. Jessica’s Run is that third act,” he said. He said of Johnson: “He was a such a sweet guy but he had a backbone made out of steel and one of the most beautiful minds I’ve ever known. What is it Nicholas Hilliard said about Sir Francis Bacon? Si tabula daretur digna, animum mallem: “If one could but paint his mind.“

George Clayton Johnson, novelist and screenwriter: born Cheyenne, Wyoming 10 July 1929; married 1952 Lola Brownstein (one daughter, one son); died North Hills, California 25 December 2015.
