Gregory McDonald was born in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, USA. He was an American novelist best known for his creation of the character Irwin Maurice Fletcher, an investigative reporter who preferred the nickname "Fletch." He studied at Harvard University. Two of the Fletch books earned Edgar Awards from the Mystery Writers of America: Fletch was named Best First Novel in 1975, and Confess, Fletch won for Best Paperback Original in 1977. This is the only time a novel and its sequel won back-to-back Edgars. Mcdonald would go on to write seven more Fletch novels, including the prequels Fletch Won and Fletch Too.
