Here are the Lynds names I can remember:
1. Dennis Lynds 2. Michael Collins 3. William Arden 4. John
Stowe 5. Mark Sadler 6. Brett Halliday 7. Robert Hart Davis
8. Maxwell Grant
He also wrote books in the Nick Carter and Mack Bolan series,
but neither of those have actual by-lines on them.
How about W.T. Ballard? I can think of the following names he
used:
1. W.T. Ballard 2. Todhunter Ballard 3. P.D. Ballard 4. John
Shepherd 5. Jack Slade 6. Clint Reno 7. Neil McNeil 8.
Harrison Hunt (with Norbert Davis) 9. John Hunter 10. Parker
Bonner 11. Sam Bowie 12. Hunter D'Allard 13. Clay Turner 14.
Brian Fox 15. Brian Agar
He also wrote pulp novels, sometimes in collaboration with
Robert Leslie Bellem, under house names Robert Wallace and
John Grange, as well as one novel in the Nick Carter series.
Of course, most of the names above were used only on
Westerns, so that may not count.
