Common Knowledge

Disambiguation notice
Sarah Nichols (2) is a pseudonym of Lee Hays, as evidenced by copyright statements in the author's books. There is some slight but compelling evidence that this Lee Hays is the same as Lee Hays (1), who already has an entry here at LT and some even slighter but also compelling evidence that both of these are also Lee Hays (2), a member of the folk singing group The Weavers, as he had an interest in writing fiction and is known to have published some short works in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine and other pulp venues.

EDIT: The Library of Congress lists some of these pseudonymous works under a Lee Hays with no birth/death dates, along with works by Lee Hays (2), but it also lists some of these pseudonymous works (along with works using the pseudonyms Hilary Desmond and Don Scott) under "Lee Hays (1930–)", in which case the author can NOT be Lee Hays (2) as his dates are 1914–1981.
