American mystery author Arthur Benjamin Reeve was born on October 15, 1880, and passed away on August 9, 1936. The series characters Professor Craig Kennedy, frequently referred to as "The American Sherlock Holmes," and Kennedy's newspaper reporter sidekick Walter Jameson are what made him most famous. These characters appeared in 18 detective books. Reeve is best known for the 82 Craig Kennedy tales that were featured in Cosmopolitan between 1910 and 1918. With the third collection, the short stories were published and compiled as episodic novels. These were collected in books.
