About the author
Will H. Grattan appears to be an obscure early 20th-century fiction writer whose name is now chiefly attached to "Broadcast." Project Gutenberg lists that work under his name, and its catalog notes it as a suspenseful story from the pulp-magazine era.
Reliable biographical details about Grattan are scarce in the sources I could confirm. Open Library has an author entry for him, but it offers almost no personal information beyond linking his name to "Broadcast." Because of that, it is safest to describe him as a little-documented author known through surviving magazine fiction rather than to guess at dates, nationality, or other life details.
That scarcity can be part of the appeal for listeners: Grattan represents the many writers whose stories outlived their biographies. What remains is the atmosphere of popular adventure storytelling and a sense of the literary world that once thrived in magazines and short fiction.
