Yep.
He was a screenwriter and novelist and one of the "Hollywood Ten." Ironically considering it was an anti-war novel, he stopped JGHS from being published until WWII was over (something like that; I forget the details) because of fearing conveying some sort of anti-Allied sentiment.

I like it!
It's definitely less usual and it has a cool feel to it. I'm kind of tickled to learn that you used it. :-)
