Overview: Robert Lloyd Fish was born on August 21, 1912 in Cleveland, Ohio, and studied engineering at Case School of Applied Science, where he graduated in 1933. Fish’s career as an engineer was highly successful. When he submitted his first effort at detective fiction, “The Adventure of the Ascot Tie” for the February 1960 issue of Ellery Queen’s Mystery, he was forty-eight years old. A year later his first novel,The Fugitive, was published; winning the Mystery Writers of America’s Edgar Allan Poe Award for best first novel.
Failing health did not deter Fish. He had open heart surgery in 1971 but continued to work at his Trumball, Connecticut home until his death on February 23, 1981, when he was found in his study, pen in hand.
In 1984, in recognition of Fish’s impact on the genre, the Mystery Writers of America established the Robert L. Fish Memorial Award in his honor, celebrating new talent in mystery short story writing.
