Charles Stanley Strong, born in Brooklyn, New York, was an American writer, adventurer and explorer who once machine-gunned a shark from an airplane. Strong studied at the Pace Institute of Accounting and Law, and he studied Scandinavian literature at the University of Oslo. His hobbies included riding, hunting, fishing, and automobile and motorboat racing. His "hydroaerographic chart" was used by European pilots.
His pen names include Chuck Stanley, William McClellan, Carl Sturdy, Kelvin McKay, Nancy Bartlett, Myron Keats, Charles Stoddard, Larry Regan, the house names Carolyn Keene and Franklin W. Dixon, and possibly several others. His own name was used as a pseudonym for other writers, including Samuel Epstein and Beryl Williams. He wrote Lassie: Treasure Hunter, the Hardy Boys book The Hooded Hawk Mystery, and the Nancy Drew book The Scarlet Slipper Mystery.
