Dr. Jesco von Puttkamer was a very frequent guest of honor at many Star Trek conventions, and NASA's (official, unofficial?) Star Trek fan liaison.
He wrote a single piece of fanfic, a story called "The Sleeping God," for Star Trek: The New Voyages #2.
von Puttkamer was also an occasional contributor to fanzines as a columnist and answerer of questions about science and space travel. See Organian Questor #6 (1978), Inside Star Trek #25 (1978), Orion Quadrant #1, #2 (1979, 1980), and Interstat #30 (1980).
