Le Gwin was born in 1929. He graduated from Radcliffe College, a girls' university in 1951, and in 1952 got a master's degree from Columbia University.Fulbright scholarship studentWhen I studied in Paris as a marriage met with a historian Charles Le Gwynne.
Writers' activities started before the 1960s, wrote five pieces, such as works set in the fictitious country "Orsinia" in Europe, and debuted in earnest in a short story in 1962. In 1966, I published the first SF novel "The World of Loconon", in 1968 "The Fight with Shadows". "Battles with shadows" is the first volume of the "Earthsea" series, and by the year 2001, six volumes including Gaiden were published.
In 1969's "Left hand of darkness", he received both the Hugo Prize and the Nebula Prize, which are known as the two biggest awards given to SF works.
Writer Stephen King also mourns for its death.
Usula K. LeGuin, one of the greats, has passed. Not just a science fiction writer; a literary icon. Godspeed into the galaxy.

The director Mr. Hayao Miyazaki also liked it for "Gedo Senki", he liked it long ago and he consulted Iwanami Shoten, the publisher, before making a movie of "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind", but Mr. Le Gwin The talk flowed because it was not there. Likewise, although there was a talk of filming in the 1990 's, it disappeared without becoming shape.
In 2003, Mr. Le Gwynn turned positive to movie, "Only Mr. Hayao Miyazaki who made" My Neighbor Totoro "if I can give OK to movie", but this time Mr. Miyazaki I declined because I was working on 'Howl's Moving Castle'. However, it was decided to become a movie by Director Miyazaki Goro after having gone through twists and turns within the Studio Ghibli because it is a great offer.
The movie "Gedo Senki" was completed and released in 2006, but as a draft I adopted the work of Hayao Miyazaki's work "Shuna's journey", which is a slightly different work from the original, le Mr. Gwin 's response was somewhat critical.
