Frank Kane

From Amazon:
Author Frank Kane was born in Brooklyn in 1912, and spent his life in New York working in a number of fields including corporate public relations, journalism, and radio and film, before devoting full-time to writing fiction.

Mr. Kane is best known as a prolific writer of many mystery crime books between the 1940s and 1960s. His best known books were the hard-boiled and racy Private Eye Johnny Liddell Mystery Crime series. Kane died unexpectedly in 1968 at the young age of 56.

John Skelton of Golden Retro Publishing has revived some of the Johnny Liddell mystery crime books into enhanced e-book format so that Mr. Kane's works can continue to be enjoyed by lovers of mystery crime stories. Mr. Kane's legacy lives on.

Frank Kane's information was derived from the following sources:
