Lawrence Taylor Shaw (November 9, 1924–1985) was a Hugo Award-winning science fiction author and editor who usually published as Larry T. Shaw.
Shaw joined the Futurians in the early 1940s. From 1948 through the early 1950s, he wrote short fiction before becoming an editor for If and later Infinity Science Fiction. He published Harlan Ellison's first magazine story "Glowworm" (1955) in Infinity Science Fiction, following Ellison's first sale to EC Comics.
After those magazines folded in 1958, Shaw edited monster movie magazines, automotive magazines and other material until 1963, when he began editing for Irwin Stein's Lancer Books. He continued working the editorial end of the business until 1975, when he focused on work as a literary agent. He received a Special Hugo Award in 1984 for lifetime achievement as an editor.
Shaw was married to Spur Award-winning Western fiction author Lee Hoffman from 1956 to 1958. He later married Noreen Kane (1930-2005). Shaw died of cancer in 1985.
