NORMAN A. DANBERG

1905 - 1995

Writing as: William Dale, Norman Daniels, Norma Dann, Daniella Dorsett, Harrison Judd, Kerry McRoberts, Mark Reed, Norman T. Vane, David Wade


According to Wikipedia: "Norman Arthur Danberg, better known as Norman A. Daniels and other pen names (1905 – 1995), was an American writer working in pulp magazines, radio, and television. He created the pulp hero the Black Bat and wrote for such series as The Phantom Detective and The Shadow."

This incredibly prolific author had so many pseudonyms, it is a wonder if he could remember them all.

I especially enjoy the question as to whether he was actually the highly praised gothic author Dorothy Daniels. Back as a teenager and a fan of Dark Shadows, I also read a ton of "her" books. Wikipedia mentions Norman Daniels was married to Dorothy Daniels and that she also became a writer so did he write under her name or did she produce her own work or both?
