Dear T.Kent,
Bruno Fischer was a regular contributor to the Popular
Publications group of detective mags in the late 1940's to
early 1950's when the pulp market slipped in favor of
paperback books. He made 5 appearances in Black Mask. He was
a workman like writer, very popular during his short story
run.
