A klasszikus SF egyik nagy alakja. Alfred Bester a.k.a. Alfie Bester (December 18, 1913 – September 30, 1987) was an author, television and radio scriptwriter, magazine editor and scripter for comic strips and comic books. Though successful in all these fields, he is probably best remembered today for his work as a science fiction author, and as the winner of the first Hugo Award in 1953 for his novel The Demolished Man. He also wrote the book, "The Stars My Destination." Alfred Bester was a senior Psi Corps officer and one of the more notorious Psi Cops in Level 12 Investigations. Alfred Bester (real name: Stephen Kevin Dexter) is a frequently recurring anti-villain on Babylon 5. Bester is a senior Psi Corp officer and high level telepath, possessing dangerous mind reading and controlling capablities. Bester's priorities, while frequently putting him in opposition with the Babylon 5 crew, very rarely directly involve the station, its purpose or its methods. Bester views telepaths and telekinetics as being genetically superior to other humans and seeks to advance the role of Psi Corp in both Earth and Galactic control. A highly influential science fiction author, Alfred Bester was pretty much the Orson Welles of the literary world: an overweight, gregarious man who took chances with the format like nothing seen before. His works include The Demolished Man (the first winner of the Hugo Award), The Stars My Destination, and stories in comics like The Phantom and several DC characters. The latter gave us easily his most famous pop culture contribution in the Green Lantern oath. He was the namesake of characters in two later classic sci-fi TV shows, Babylon 5 and Firefly.

Alfred Bester (real name: Stephen Kevin Dexter) is a frequently recurring anti-villain on Babylon 5. Bester is a senior Psi Corp officer and high level telepath, possessing dangerous mind reading and controlling capablities. Bester's priorities, while frequently putting him in opposition with the Babylon 5 crew, very rarely directly involve the station, its purpose or its methods. Bester views telepaths and telekinetics as being genetically superior to other humans and seeks to advance the role of Psi Corp in both Earth and Galactic control. Bester was portrayed in the series by Walter Koenig, who is best known for playing Pavel Chekov on Star Trek. He is named after science fiction author Alfred Bester, who was known for using psychic characters in many of his stories and novels. A highly influential science fiction author, Alfred Bester was pretty much the Orson Welles of the literary world: an overweight, gregarious man who took chances with the format like nothing seen before. His works include The Demolished Man (the first winner of the Hugo Award), The Stars My Destination, and stories in comics like The Phantom and several DC characters. The latter gave us easily his most famous pop culture contribution in the Green Lantern oath. He loved Painting the Medium, using illustrations, different fonts, and changes in point of view to enhance the story being told, plus the stories were always incredible on their own. Sadly, his career was hampered by failing eyesight in the mid-1970s, and he died in 1987 from complications from a broken hip. He was the namesake of characters in two later classic sci-fi TV shows, Babylon 5 and Firefly.
