Eustace Cockrell's writing career began at age twenty-two when his first story, co-authored with his older brother Francis M. Cockrell, was published in Blue Book (September 1932), a major pulp fiction magazine. Moving from Missouri to Los Angeles in the mid-1930s, he continued to write not only for pulp publications but also for "slicks" like Collier's and Saturday Evening Post. In the early 1940s, MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) purchased the rights to several of his stories that later became movies including Fast Company and Tennessee Champ. It was his television scripts, however, that brought Cockrell fame. Hollywood Stories is a collection of the author's original tales that captured the imagination of an entire generation and made TV trays a necessity in every American home. In Cockrell's "Hollywood stories," this excitement returns.
