Arnold Marmor

Arnold Marmor was an American author listed in major library and public-domain catalogs as Arnold Marmor (1927–1978). Although biographical details about his life are scarce in the sources readily available online, his published work shows that he wrote mystery and suspense fiction.

Catalog records and book listings connect him with several novels, including The Secret Past. The way his work is described in later listings suggests a traditional mystery style, with an emphasis on plot and intrigue rather than literary showiness.

Because so little verified personal information is easy to confirm, he remains one of those writers best known through the books themselves. For listeners who enjoy forgotten or rediscovered crime fiction, his work offers a glimpse of a classic paperback-era storytelling voice.
