Timeline
His great grandson Simon Wells directed the 2002 remake of The Time Machine which was based on his novel.
Cheated on his wives repeatedly. He even demanded of his second wife the "right" to take lovers. His son with journalist Rebecca West, Anthony West, wrote about their relationship in "Aspects of a Life" (1984). He also had a child with Amber Reeves, the daughter of one of London's most prominent families. His other lovers included Odette Keun, Moura Budberg and Margaret Sanger. Wells may have fathered up to five children out of wedlock.
On television, Wells has been played by both John Bird (in "Fothergill", 1981) and, more recently, by Michael Sheen in "H.G. Wells's War With The World" (2006).
He is the subject of the 1979 movie Time After Time (1979). It depicts Wells (played by Malcolm McDowell) inventing a time machine which Jack the Ripper uses to travel to 1979 San Francisco, and so Wells must follow him there.
His work and influence on the long-running science fiction television series Doctor Who (1963) was the subject of the documentary All's Wells That Ends Wells (2011). His role as the father of British science-fiction had inspired Glen McCoy to write Doctor Who: Timelash: Part One (1985). He thought it would be amusing for British television's most famous science-fiction character, the Doctor, to meet Wells. In the story, Wells is depicted simply as "Herbert". The Doctor is also portrayed reading "The Time Machine" in Doctor Who (1996) as a tribute to him.
All four of his children were still alive when The Time Machine (1960) & Time After Time (1979) were released in theaters.
He was an active member in the socialist Fabian Society. He was also a Labour Party candidate for the UK Parliament in 1921 and 1922, but was easily defeated.
Was the first novelist to employ the themes of time travel ("The Time Machine"), interplanetary invasion ("The War of the Worlds"), genetic manipulation ("The Island of Dr. Moreau"), and nuclear war ("The World Set Free") - the latter in 1913, a year before World War I broke out, and over three decades before the first atomic bomb (which term he also originated).
Writer, born in Bromley, Kent. He was apprenticed to a draper, tried teaching, studied biology in London, then made his mark in journalism and literature. He played a vital part in disseminating the progressive ideas which characterized the first part of the 20th-c. He achieved fame with scientific fantasies such as The Time Machine (1895) and War of the Worlds (1898), and wrote a range of comic social novels which proved highly popular, notably Kipps (1905) and The History of Mr Polly (1910). Both kinds of novel made successful (sometimes classic) early films.
