(1942- ) US author who was associated with Star Trek from the early 1970s into the 1980s, moving from fan activities into Star Trek Ties and commentaries (see Star Trek). Marshak began with Star Trek Lives! (1975) with Jacqueline Lichtenberg and Joan Winston, moving on to Star Trek: The New Voyages (anth 1976) with Myrna Culbreath and its direct sequel, Star Trek: The New Voyages 2 (anth 1978), also with Culbreath, two enthusiastic but patchy compilations of short fiction by various authors. Subsequent Ties written with Culbreath include The Price of the Phoenix (1977) and its direct sequel The Fate of the Phoenix (1979), The Prometheus Design: A Star Trek Novel (1982) and Triangle: A Star Trek Novel (1983). With William Shatner, Marshak and Culbreath wrote Shatner: "Where No Man ...": The Authorized Biography of William Shatner (1979).
