* I couldnʻt get into Google today to verify his dates of birth and death; I think the latter was
only a few years ago. On the spelling of his middle name, "Search" gives both the -ey and the -ay endings.

Schmerguls, Thanks for the data on the last "U" author,
James Ramsey Ullman. (288, 295)
I was surprised that he only lived to 1971, I may have had him mixed up with some other author who died in recent years (?) (someone not as well known as Parker or Crichton whom I have also
mentioned in this thread.)
I canʻt think of a "U" author at the moment.
