Personal Quote:
[re villains' brevity of speech] You never tell the guy what could happen to him. Let him use his imagination, he'll think of something worse. In other words, don't talk when you don't have to. See more »Trivia:
His father, an executive with General Motors, moved the family to Detroit when he was nine years old. After graduating from high school in 1943, he spent two years in the Navy, graduated from the University of Detroit in 1950 and then became a copywriter for a local advertising agency.

Spends the first half of a novel setting up various unrelated characters, then in the second half has them all interact, providing completely unpredictable consequences See more »Nickname:
