Timeline
In 1964, Frances Hamling and her husband bought a fully-furnished Arthur Elrod house in Palm Springs, California, but promised the former owner that they would not change it in any way. Rugs, appliances, even ashtrays and a candy dish were left in place for years; the house is still considered "an incredible time capsule" of mid-century modern decor.
Frances Yerxa wrote essays and science fiction, under various bylines. She also assisted her second husband in editing pulp magazines. She was managing editor of the magazines Imagination and Imaginative Tales from 1953 to 1958, and executive editor of Rogue, a men's magazine. As an officer of Greenleaf Publishing, she was a co-defendant with her husband in 1965, when the company was charged with copyright infringement. In 1976, her ex-husband Hamling served several months in prison for publishing obscene works.
