  • Johnston McCulley Raised in Chillicothe, IL, was the author of hundreds of stories, fifty novels, numerous screenplays for film and television, and the creator of the character Zorro. Many of his novels and stories were written under the pseudonyms Harrison Strong, Raley Brien, George Drayne, Monica Morton, Rowena Raley, Frederic Phelps, Walter Pierson, and John Mack Stone, among others. McCulley started as a police reporter for The Police Gazette and served as an Army public affairs officer during World War I. An amateur history buff, he went on to a career in pulp fiction and screenplays, often using a Southern California backdrop for his stories. Aside from Zorro, McCulley created many other pulp characters, including Black Star, The Mongoose, and Thubway Tham. Many of McCulley's characters—the Green Ghost, the Thunderbolt, and the Crimson Clown—were inspirations for the masked heroes that have appeared in popular culture from McCulley's time to the present day. Some of McCulley's tales are available from Wildside Press. Pulp Adventures Inc. has published two oversized trade paperback volumes reprinting many of the original Zorro stories. McCulley is entombed in Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery.

  • Johnston McCulley, est un écrivain américain, créateur du personnage de Zorro. Il commence comme reporter policier pour The Police Gazette et sert comme officier des affaires publiques de l'armée pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Amateur féru d'histoire, il en vient au roman à sensation et aux scénarios, utilisant souvent le sud de la Californie comme décor. Son protagoniste Zorro, est d'abord apparu en feuilleton dans The Curse of Capistrano en 1919, dans le pulp magazine, All-Story Weekly. Zorro devient son personnage le plus durable, apparaissant dans quatre romans (les trois derniers ont tous été publiés en feuilleton dans Argosy Magazine, qui avait absorbé All-Story). Le premier apparaît en 1919, le deuxième en 1922, puis il y eut un intervalle important avant la parution du troisième roman Zorro Rides Again en 1931.
  • La sua carriera inzia come reporter della polizia ed in seguito lavora come ufficiale di affari pubblici durante la Prima Guerra mondiale, ma si segnala come uno degli scrittori che pubblicano storie pulp sulle riviste americane. Dopo tanti lavori piuttosto anonimi, arriva alle luci della ribalta nel 1919, quando pubblica su All-story weekly un romanzo a dispense intitolato The curse of Capistrano (La maledizione di Capistrano), incentrato su un mascherato difensore degli oppressi che si fa chiamare Zorro. Il successo è enorme e già l'anno successivo viene prodotto un film intitolato Il segno di Zorro basato proprio sul racconto di McCulley. Sull'onda del favore popolare, nei decenni successivi McCulley scriverà diversi altri romanzi dedicati al personaggio, che diventerà così in breve tempo una delle massime icone popolari, anche grazie alla miriade di produzioni fumettistiche, televisive, radiofoniche e cinematografiche realizzate nel tempo.
