Angus MacVicar
Angus MacVicar( 28 October 1908, Argyll – 31 October 2001, Campbeltown, Argyll and Bute) was a Scottish author with a wide- ranging output.
His greatest successes came in three separate genres: crime thrillers, juvenile science fiction, and autobiography.
His early writing was interrupted by wartime service with the Royal Scots Fusiliers, hence most of his fiction appeared in the two decades following World War II.
MacVicar, whose father( also Angus) was a Presbyterian minister in the Church of Scotland( including at Southend from 1910 to 1957), was born at the manse at Southend, where he lived for most of his life, including at' Achnamara', the bungalow he had built overlooking Southend Bay following his marriage to Jean.
After attending the University of Glasgow he went on to work for the" Campbeltown Courier".
The MacVicar family was notably long- lived; the senior, Reverend Angus MacVicar lived to be 92; MacVicar's younger brother, Kenneth, entered the church, serving as Chaplain to the Queen in Scotland, and died aged 96.
Highlights of MacVicar's many thrillers included the Edgar Wallace- style" Greybreek"( 1947) and" The Killings on Kersivay"( 1962), plus some books with golfing backgrounds.
His children's stories combine simple character sketches and exotic adventure with a non-obtrusive Christian morality.
The Lost Planet series was extremely popular in books, radio and TV versions( he was also an accomplished screenwriter and playwright).
In these stories a pacifist theme came through strongly.
There are six novels in the Lost Planet series:" The Lost Planet"( 1953)," Return to the Lost Planet"( 1954)," Secret of the Lost Planet"( 1955)," Red Fire on the Lost Planet"( 1959)," Peril on the Lost Planet"( 1960) and" Space Agent from the Lost Planet"( 1961).
It was the first science fiction series ever translated to Hebrew, and had considerable impact on the development of this genre in Israel.
The short unrelated Atom Chasers series was also popular.
In later life MacVicar turned to portraying his life and background as a child of the Manse in several memoirs such as" Salt in My Porridge"( 1971).
These books showed his Scottish literary voice at its most characteristic, unhampered by the genre requirements of his fiction.
MacVicar also presented the BBC television program" Songs of Praise".
Sam Newfield
Sam Newfield, born Samuel Neufeld,( December 6, 1899- November 10, 1964), also known as Sherman Scott or Peter Stewart, was an American B-movie director, one of the most prolific in American film history —he is credited with directing over 250 feature films in a career which began during the silent era and ended in 1958.
