Spicer, Bart

Page history last edited by Luca Conti 15 years, 4 months ago

Bart Spicer (Richmond, Virginia, 13 April 1918 - Tucson, Arizona, 15 February 1978) was the pen name of Albert Samuel Spicer. He also wrote four novels as Jay Barbette in tandem with his wife, Betty Coe Spicer. He had four series characters, Benson Kellog, Peregrine White, Carney Wilde (as Spicer) and Harry Butten (as Barbette). He also wrote five non-criminous novels. Spicer worked as a radio journalist until 1949, then became a full-time novelist. He deserves wider recognition for his hardboiled style of writing. Whilst there are some big names overshadowing him, his work stands up very favourably to the likes of Mickey Spillane. A recommended author to fans of the genre.
