Question: What author wrote a novel, published in 1961, featuring a minor fictional character named Schiesskopf?
Context: Queen Berúthiel is a minor fictional character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium. Sin Pit is a crime novel by American journalist Paul S. Meskil (Jul 2, 1923–Oct 11, 2005), published by Lion Books in 1954.  It is one of those rare paperback originals that has achieved cult status through a combination of circumstances, including the fact the author wrote only one work of crime fiction, the initial print run was relatively low for paperbacks at the time, the book had only one print run by the original publisher (Lion Books) and, finally, found an audience years later among collectors of 1950s paperback crime novels.  Sin Pit shares all the above circumstances with another paperback crime novel published a year earlier, in 1953, that similarly achieved cult status — Black Wings Has My Angel by Elliott Chaze, published by Fawcett Gold Medal.  Both authors were respected journalists their entire lives and wrote only a single crime novel that was never republished until years later, only after gaining an audience among aficionados of pulp fiction. Bottom's Dream (German: "Zettels Traum" or "ZETTEL’S TRAUM" as the author wrote the title) is a novel published in 1970 by West German author Arno Schmidt.  Schmidt began writing the novel in December 1963 while he and Hans Wollschläger began to translate the works of Edgar Allan Poe into German.  The novel was inspired by James Joyce's novel "Finnegans Wake", particularly Schmidt's use of columns (his "SpaltenTechnik"), which Schmidt claimed was borrowed from the "Wake". Nyoka the Jungle Girl is a fictional character created for the screen in the 1941 serial "Jungle Girl", starring Frances Gifford as Nyoka Meredith.  The character of Nyoka is often described as having been created by Edgar Rice Burroughs; however, although the serial was officially based on Burroughs' story "Jungle Girl" (first appearing in the pulp magazine, "Blue Book", and later published as a novel), there is no character named Nyoka and no Nyoka-like character in the original story.  The movie's credits list Burroughs along with six other writers, but his input on creating the film character was obviously minimal, because the studio later was able to use the name "Nyoka" in a sequel without crediting Burroughs at all.  After the initial film, Nyoka appeared in comic books published by Fawcett, Charlton, and AC Comics. The following is a list of recurring and minor fictional characters from the American television drama "24".  The following events are fictional and portrayed from both an in-universe and out of universe perspective.  Furthermore, this list contains minor characters whose story arcs lasted anywhere from one or two episodes to two or three seasons.  The list is sorted by when the character made their "first" appearance on the series; however, many have appeared in subsequent seasons. Myōjin Yahiko (明神 弥彦 ) , known as Yahiko Myojin in the Media Blasters English-language dub and Yoshi Myojin in the English Sony "Samurai X" dub, is a fictional character from the "Rurouni Kenshin" manga and anime series authored by Nobuhiro Watsuki.  The character of Yahiko is based on the author's childhood experiences practicing kendo; since Watsuki's experienced frustration during kendo classes, the author wrote Yahiko as experiencing frustration with his kendo skills.  Watsuki liked Yahiko, and while writing the manga, he began to develop the character so that readers would enjoy him. Luma Lynai is a minor fictional character in the DC Universe, one of many to use the alias Superwoman.  She first appeared in the story "Superman's Super Courtship!"  in "Action Comics" No. 289 (June 1962). Scheisskopf is a minor fictional character in the novel "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller, who is promoted through the ranks from Lieutenant to First Lieutenant, Colonel and finally to Lieutenant General.  Lieutenant Scheisskopf is the title of Chapter Eight and General Scheisskopf is the title of Chapter Thirty-seven.  Scheisskopf is a parade-obsessed ROTC graduate and training officer at the Air cadet base where Yossarian and Clevinger are trained before being sent overseas.  Later Scheisskopf is himself transferred overseas to General Peckem’s command. Orator (Victor Ludwig) was a minor fictional character from Marvel Comics. Catch-22 is a satirical novel by American author Joseph Heller.  He began writing it in 1953; the novel was first published in 1961.  Often cited as one of the most significant novels of the twentieth century, it uses a distinctive non-chronological third-person omniscient narration, describing events from the points of view of different characters.  The separate storylines are out of sequence so the timeline develops along with the plot.
Answer: Joseph Heller
