Autor

Frederic Arnold Kummer (1873-1943) was an American author, playwright, and screenwriter known for his prolific work in the early 20th century. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Kummer demonstrated a keen literary acumen from a young age, which paved the way for his extensive career in writing ('Kummer, Frederic Arnold', 1920). His authorship spans various genres including mystery, adventure, and romance, with a notable attention to intricate plotting and a flair for dramatic narratives. One of his works, 'The Web' (1920), is a testament to his skill in weaving suspense and tension into a detective story, a genre that was blossoming during his time. Kummer's literary style is reflective of the period's fascination with the sensational and the exotic, often transporting readers to settings imbued with intrigue and peril. In addition to literature, Kummer's talent extended to the theatre and Hollywood, where he penned numerous plays and screenplays, further solidifying his place in the entertainment world of his era. While not as widely remembered today as some of his contemporaries, Kummer's contributions to early 20th century fiction and drama remain an important part of the literary and cultural landscape of the time (Kummer, 'A Man of Iron', 1927; 'The Blue Lights', 1915).
