Author Bio for Street, Cecil John Charles
Cecil John Charles Street (3 May 1884 – 8 December 1964), better known as John Street, was a major in the British Army and a crime fiction novelist.
He began his military career as an artillery officer and during World War I, he became a propagandist for MI7. During the Irish War of Independence, he acted as an Information Officer for Dublin Castle alternating between Dublin and London and working closely with the British official Lionel Curtis. He later earned his living as a prolific writer of detective novels written under several pseudonyms including John Rhode, Miles Burton, and Cecil Waye.
John Street wrote three crime detective series; one under the name of John Rhode, mostly featuring the mathematics professor Dr. Lancelot Priestley; another under the name of Miles Burton, mostly featuring the retired naval officer, Desmond Merrion; and a third under the name of Cecil Waye, featuring the Perrins Investigators.
