About the author
Robert Zacks was an American writer associated with the early years of television drama. IMDb credits him as a writer on anthology programs including Danger, Robert Montgomery Presents, Schlitz Playhouse, Short Short Dramas, Lux Video Theatre, and The Ford Television Theatre, with work appearing in the early to mid-1950s.
Evidence from book and catalog listings also connects his name to short fiction published in magazine and anthology settings, including science fiction and crime-oriented material. That mix suggests he worked comfortably in compact, plot-driven forms that fit both pulp publication and the fast pace of early TV storytelling.
Reliable biographical details beyond those credits are scarce in the sources I found, so a fuller personal profile is hard to confirm. What does come through clearly is a career linked to short-form narrative entertainment during a formative period for American television.
