Rex Miller
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rex Miller, born Rex Miller Spangberg, wrote novels detailing the investigations of Jack Eichord, a fictional homicide detective who specialized in tracking down serial killers. Slob, the first novel of the series, introduced Edward Bunkowski, a half-ton, killing-machine serial killer. Other books in the series are Frenzy, Slice, Savant and Stone Shadow.
Spangberg also wrote Profane Men, a novel set during the Vietnam War, in addition to the limited-edition novel St. Louis Blues. Spangberg resurrected Edward Bunkowski for two novels, Chaingang and Butcher, that take place outside of the continuity of the Eichord series.
Rex Miller Spangberg was also a popular disc jockey in the 1960's, and was considered an expert in the field of juvenile-related collectibles, particularly old time radio premiums. Spangberg died in Sikeston, Missouri on May 21, 2004.
