W Fairman Paul: - Paul Warren Fairman (1909-1977) was an editor and writer who worked under various pen names and under his real name. His "Late Rain" detective story appeared in the February 1947 edition of Mammoth Detective. His story "No Teeth for the Tiger" appeared in the February 1950 issue of Amazing Stories. He became the founding editor of If two years later, but only edited four issues. He took over as editor of Amazing Stories and Fantastic in 1955. He maintained both positions until 1958. The films "Deadly City" and "The Cosmic Frame" were based on his science fiction short stories. Fairman left Ziff Davis, the magazines' publisher, in 1958 when he was hired as managing editor of Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine by its new publisher B. G. Davis, who had left ZD to found his own Davis Publications and purchased EQMM from Mercury Press as his first major act; Fairman continued until 1963, when he left to focus on writing his own work, often under different names. He ghost-wrote many children's novels, including The Runaway Robot (1965), which were based on outlines by Lester del Rey, whose name appeared on the publications. He also contributed to Ellery Queen's A Study in Terror (1966), in which Ellery discovers a previously undisclosed Sherlock Holmes manuscript.
