ANTIC Interview 142 - Clayton Walnum, A.N.A.L.O.G. Computing and ST-Log

Clayton Walnum, A.N.A.L.O.G. Computing and ST-Log

Clayton Walnum was writer and editor at A.N.A.L.O.G. Computing and ST-Log magazines. He started out as technical editor at A.N.A.L.O.G., and was eventually executive editor of both magazines. Clayton wrote the C-manship column - an ongoing tutorial on the C programming language - as well as many, many other articles.

This interview took place on November 8, 2015. In the interview we talk about Lee Pappas, whom I previously interviewed.

Teaser quotes:

“The first day, he pointed out my desk and it was like a foot deep in submissions that they hadn’t gotten to yet. So my first job was to go through all of those submissions and find the stuff that looked interesting, and see what we might want to buy for the magazine.”

“At that point on the masthead I was listed as executive editor. I was pretty much single-handedly producing both A.N.A.L.O.G. and ST-Log.”
