Announcing SFWA’s 2025 Infinity Award Recipient: Frank Herbert

In 1965, two pretty great things happened in science fiction: Damon Knight founded SFWA, and one of its earliest members published a book that would become a classic that continues to inspire. This year, we celebrate Frank Herbert for SFWA’s Infinity Award.

In the muted background, snapshots of Kansas City highlights. In the foreground, the Nebula Conference logo and the words "Kansas City, We're on our Way! Nebula Awards Conference registration is now open!"
