found: Wikipedia, Feb. 3, 2009(Ross Macdonald is the pseudonym of the American-Canadian writer of crime fiction Kenneth Millar; b. Dec. 13, 1915, Los Gatos, CA; d. July 11, 1983, Santa Barbara, CA; he completed his first novel, The Dark Tunnel, in 1944. At this time, he wrote under the name John Macdonald, in order to avoid confusion with his wife, who was writing as Margaret Millar. He then changed briefly to John Ross Macdonald before settling on Ross Macdonald, in order to avoid mixups with contemporary John D. MacDonald)

[Kenneth Millar wrote successively under his real name then under the pseudonyms John Macdonald and John Ross Macdonald before finally establishing himself as Ross Macdonald under which name he is best known and under which name all his previous works seem to have subsequently been published; per RDA 6.27.1.7 the authorized access point for these works is Ross Macdonald.]
