Between his time as a New York sportswriter and later a high-profile true crime author, Sid Feder covered the war in Italy and beyond for the Associated Press.
The Internet Movie Database claims that Feder was born in 1906 and died at age 81 in 1987 - and not born in 1909 and died at age 50 in 1960. Which is correct?
Great story, but one minor correction: The Cardinals beat the Browns in the 1944 World Series.
Wow, quite a brain lock there on my part ... late-night writing catches up to me sometimes. Thanks for reading!
No problem. I have really enjoyed this series.

Hi Dan, his death in 1960 was reported in many newspapers ... not sure where IMDB is getting its info on this one.
