Ed McBain: A Final Farewell to a Novelist
Though he'd once thought to become a cartoonist, "Chalk" helped convince him to pursue the life of an author, instead.. . .
(As his friend James Grady, a screenwriter and journalist, explains in Slate, McBain reasoned "that publishing would buy a WASP moniker more easily than the 1950s ethnic- and class-conscious marketplace would buy the books of a novelist with a name like Lombino.") That gritty tale about a young teacher whose idealism is challenged by the reality of an urban vocational school filled with troublemakers, was quickly adapted for Hollywood, the film version starring Glenn Ford and a very youthful Sidney Poitier.
. . .
That story kicks off as a Hunter tale about a middle-aged gent who wrecks his life during one evening of debauchery, but then segues into a police procedural.
. . .
After leaving the military in July 1946, he studied literature at Hunter College in New York, eventually graduating Phi Beta Kappa.
. . .
The author had better success with movies, both for the large and small screens, several of which (including 1958's Cop Hater, 1972's Fuzz and the 1995 teleplay Ed McBain's 87th Precinct: Lightning) were adapted from 87th Precinct novels.
. . .
McBain/Hunter even wrote the screenplays for some adaptations, as well as for series that had nothing to do with his books, such as Ironside and Columbo.

You don't go round the room describing the furniture," he said, providing a summary of all that's best in his, and US, crime fiction.. . .
The pattern was set, but it was a pattern that McBain managed to vary with consummate professionalism, born of solid liberal values: "When I started writing," he later said, "most of the police department in New York City, especially above the rank of detective, were Irish, Irish-American.

Ed McBain: Privileged Conversation - January Magazine | Book ...
You know who the writers are, I don't have to name names.. . .
And besides, Ollie's novel couldn't simply be bad, it had to be funny as well.

Did one story present itself to you first, and you worked that through, or was there a working through of both simultaneously?

If you haven't read it, the novel finds Detective/ First Grade Oliver Wendell Weeks having just completed a crime novel -- only to see it stolen from his car while he's busy investigating the murder of a local politico.

The Last Dance (87th Precinct) by Ed McBain
If the drama sags slightly and the imaginative force is not as strong as the punch that hits you in some of the earlier McBain crime novels, bear in mind that this is the fiftieth time McBain has worked with this highly successful formula.. . .
Nov 7, 2001 fussyhussy rated 5.0/5.0: This is Ed McBain at his 87th Precinct best.
. . .
In 'The Last Dance', the well-loved regular characters investigate an apparent suicide that turns out to be a murder; and with more to it than meets the eye.McBain's two greatest strenghts are the absorbing readability of his work, and his gift for producing dialogue in his books which is actually like real-life conversations.
. . .
The plot has the usual twists and turns, and the sub-story of the lives of Carella, Meyer, Brown et al, brings a realism often missing from long-running series.
. . .
"When a stage musical is likely to make millions, there's always somebody who makes a claim of plagiarism." So Carella and his 87th Precinct fellow officers investigate several crimes here, and work their way through a large list of suspects whose motivation might be linked to the forthcoming production of a stage musical.
