Dwight V. Swain wurde in Rochester, Michigan geboren, schloss ein Journalismusstudium mit dem BA ab, diente drei Jahre in der Army und hatte die unterschiedlichsten Jobs inne, vom Wanderarbeiter bis zum Universitätsdozenten.
Ab 1941 begannen SF-Storys von ihm zu erscheinen, zuerst in Fantastic Adventures, dann, in den 50ern, vermehrt in den von William L. Hamling herausgegebenen Magazinen Imagination und Imaginative Tales.
Sein Kurzroman The Transposed Man (1953) wurde einmal 1956 unter dem deutschen Titel Der Gestaltwandler als Utopia Nr. 75 veröffentlicht und 20 Jahre später erneut in der Reihe Zauberkreis Science Fiction. Dort erschienen in den 1970er Jahren noch zwei weitere Novellen von Swain.
Seine farbigen, abenteuerlichen Stoffe (er schrieb auch Western und Krimis, teils unter dem Pseudonym Clark South) machen ihn zu einem idealen Autor für den BLITZ-Verlag. Titel wie Der Gestaltwandler, Station des Schreckens oder Treffpunkt Knossos sind in Vorbereitung.
