A. E. Van Vogt was a SFWA Grand Master. He was born in Canada and moved to the U.S. in 1944, by which time he was well-established as one of John W. Campbell's stable of writers for Astounding Science-Fiction. He lived in Los Angeles, California and died in 2000.
"A.E. van Vogt is truly a grand master of science fiction. He is to
Canadian SF what H.G. Wells is to the British variety or Jules
Verne to the French. We all stand on his broad shoulders." --Robert
J. Sawyer
"Nobody, possibly with the exception of the Bester of "The Stars My
Destination, " ever came close to matching van Vogt for headlong,
breakneck pacing, or for the electric, crackling paranoid tension
with which he was capable of suffusing his work." --Gardner
Dozois
