Francis M. Nevins
Francis M. Nevins has been a legal aid lawyer, a law school professor, an enthusiastic scholar of classic mystery fiction (particularly the work of Cornell Woolrich), and—for almost forty years—an accomplished author of short stories and novels. He has won an Edgar award twice from the Mystery Writers of America, for books on Ellery Queen and Woolrich. His collection of essays on the legal dimensions of fiction and the law--Judges & Justice & Lawyers & Law--was also nominated for an Edgar. A retired law professor, Nevins lives in Missouri.
