| | BBC - h2g2 - Franklin W Dixon - Author |
 | | Instead, in the spirit of Thomas Edison, the character of Franklin W Dixon was created to be an all-encompassing pen-name and sole credited author on all the books of the Hardy Boys books. | | | There are still new stories being produced years after their first appearance and it is this that leads us to one of the greatest mysteries the Hardy Boys have ever brought us - how the author of their tales, Franklin W Dixon, can still be in gainful employment after nearly 80 years in the business. | | | Writers were hired to convert his storylines into novels, bound by contract never to reveal their part in the range. |

| | Although he is said to be the author of every Hardy Boys book, there is actually no writer named Franklin W. Dixon. | | | The Hardy Boys Series began in 1927, when three "breeder" volumes (written by Leslie McFarlane under the name Franklin W. Dixon) were released: The Tower Treasure, The House on the Cliff, and The Secret of the Old Mill, published by Grosset & Dunlap. | | | Its timeless plots, endearing characters, and exciting writing have helped keep the series alive for seventy-five years, while spawning and inspiring numerous spin-off series, nonfiction books, board games, TV shows, and internet sites. |
