William Ford Gibson (born March 17, 1948) is an American-Canadian
writer who has been called the "noir prophet" of the cyberpunk
subgenre of science fiction Gibson coined the term "cyberspace"
in his short story "Burning Chrome" and later popularized
the concept in his debut novel, Neuromancer (1984). In envisaging
cyberspace, Gibson created an iconography for the information age
before the ubiquity of the Internet in the 1990s. He is also credited
with predicting the rise of reality television and with establishing
the conceptual foundations for the rapid growth of virtual environments
such as videogames and the Web.
