About the author
Cornell Woolrich (1903-1968) is one of the most highly regarded writers of mystery and suspense of all of the writers from the pulp fiction era.
Under his pseudonym “William Irish”, Woolrich wrote the story It Had to Be Murder, published in Dime Detective Magazine (February 1942), which was the source of the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock movie Rear Window. François Truffaut filmed Woolrich’s The Bride Wore Black in 1968, and followed that the next year by filming Waltz into Darkness as Mississippi Mermaid.
