Julia Clara Catherine Maria Dolores Robins Norton Birk Olsen Hitchens[2] (December 25, 1907 – August 1, 1973)[3] better known as Dolores Hitchens, was an American mystery novelist who wrote prolifically from 1938 until her death in 1973. She also wrote as D. B. Olsen, a version of her first married name,[4] and under the pseudonyms Dolan Birkley and Noel Burke.[4]
Hitchens collaborated on five railroad mysteries—"police procedurals about a squad of railroad cops"—with her second husband, Bert Hitchens, a railroad detective.[4] She also branched out into other genres including Western fiction. Many of her mystery novels centered on a character named Rachel Murdock.
Hitchens wrote Fool's Gold, the 1958 novel adapted by Jean-Luc Godard for his film Bande à part (1964). Her novel The Watcher was adapted for an episode of the TV series Thriller which aired November 1, 1960.
