George Bagby (author)
George Bagby was the nom de plume of the American novelist Aaron Marc Stein (1906 – August 29, 1985), who specialized in mystery fiction. Bagby's focus was on police investigators, especially the fictional Inspector Schmidt, Chief of Homicide for the New York Police Department. In the Schmidt novels, mystery-writer Bagby himself appears as "the Watson to Schmidt's Holmes, following him on cases, and acting as biographer." A number of his novels have been translated into other languages, including German, French, and Spanish.
==Biography==
Stein was born on November 15, 1906 in New York City.〔 He attended Princeton University, graduating with a degree in archaeology and also summa cum laude.〔 His early avante-garde novels came to the attention of Theodore Dreiser and were published, but he did not gain much fame till he moved into writing mysteries. In addition to Bagby, he also published mystery novels under his own name, and under the pseudonym Hampton Stone.〔
He held a position as a radio critic for a New York newspaper in the 1930s, and then went to work for ''Time'' magazine.〔 During World War II he worked with the US Army.〔
Over 100 novels by Stein eventually saw publication, and for his lifetime achievements the Mystery Writers of America named him a Grand Master at the 1979 Edgar Awards. His final book, ''The Garbage Collector'', was published in 1984. Stein died of cancer in 1985, at the age of 79, in Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan.〔
