Eugene Cunningham (1896–1957) was an American writer of western, mystery, and sea stories.[1]

Eugene Cunningham was born on November 29, 1896, in Helena, Arkansas.[2] However, he was for many years a resident of El Paso, and folks there often assumed he was a native Texan.[2] He moved at some point to California, and died at his home in San Francisco on October 18, 1957, aged 60.[1]

He penned a number of Western novels, including Riders of the Night, Buckaroo, and Diamond River Man.[2] In non-fiction, Triggernometry examined the gunfighters of the Wild West.[2]
