Morton Cooper

Morton Cooper Feinberg (1925-2004) wrote dozens of novels, some under pseudonyms, starting in the early 1950s but he didn’t hit it big until 1967, when his novel The King, inspired by Frank Sinatra, became a massive bestseller. His subsequent novels didn’t have the same success and he fell into obscurity.
