Bruce Walter Gardner Lively Stacy Elliott (May 30, 1914 – March 21, 1973) was an American writer of mystery fiction, science fiction, and television scripts. He was also a magician who wrote several books on magic. Eliott co-founded the magicians' magazine Phoenix with Walter B. Gibson, as assistant editor, later editor. Elliott's 15 stories in The Shadow magazine between 1946 and 1948 (issues #306-320 ) include three stories in which the Shadow does not appear in his costumed identity. Elliott contributed material to The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, including the acclaimed reverse-werewolf story "Wolves Don't Cry" (1954) and a comic fantasy about Satan, "The Devil Was Sick". In November 1972, Elliott was hit by a taxi cab driver, lapsed into a coma, and died four months later on March 21, 1973. He was 58 years old.
