1920

Leslie Perri (April 27, 1920 – January 31, 1970) was the pen name of Doris Marie Claire "Doë" Baumgardt, an American science fiction fan, writer, and illustrator.

She was a member of the Futurians, the influential science fiction fan club.

Baumgardt was one of five members of the Futurians allowed into the first World Science Fiction Convention in 1939 by Sam Moskowitz (the other four were Isaac Asimov, Richard Wilson, David Kyle, and Jack Robinson).

While her pen name was "Leslie Perri", she was known to her friends as "Doë", pronounced "dough-ee".

In addition to her short fiction, she contributed both artwork and written pieces to a variety of fanzines such as Future Art, Futurian News, Le Vombiteur Literaire, Mind of Man, Mutant, and Fantasy Fictioneer.

Through her Futurian connections, she also edited minor romance fiction magazines such as Movie Love Stories.

While she was married to Wilson she became a reporter and journalist.
