Voelker should really be listed as "Robert Traver" instead of as "John D. Voelker" in the writer categories, but there seems to be no way to list the same article under different names in different categories.
See this article in today's Detroit Free Press. Here is another link with lots of good info. Northern Michigan University, Anatomy of a Murder. I note particularly the photograph of Voelkler and Jimmy Stewart, which is from the Archive of Michigan. I believe that there photos are usable, provided they are credited. You have to download them from the Archive of Michigan, of course. 7&6=thirteen ( talk) 15:40, 14 September 2008 (UTC) Stan
The numbers given in the following paragraph are already outdated, and will always be outdated due to the passage of time. I think the article would be better off if the inflation numbers were removed. -- Wapiti ( talk) 13:32, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
After the success of his novel, Anatomy of a Murder, Voelker retired from the court in 1959 in order to write full-time and to fish at his beloved Frenchman's Pond. At the time, his court salary was $18,500/year (equivalent to $Error when using {{ Inflation}}:
|index=US-NGDPPC
(parameter 1) not a recognized index. in Error: undefined index "US-NGDPPC" when using {{ Inflation/year}}. [1]) while he was earning royalties from Anatomy of a Murder of almost $100,000 (equivalent to $Error when using {{ Inflation}}:|index=US-NGDPPC
(parameter 1) not a recognized index. in Error: undefined index "US-NGDPPC" when using {{ Inflation/year}}. [1]). He delayed his resignation until after the new year in 1960 so that Governor Williams would be free to appoint his successor, Theodore Souris. After leaving the court, Voelker never practiced law again.
