Interacial Kiss?

How can a program written in the 1950s be a year before Star Trek, which aired the episode Plato's Stepchildren in November 1968? Mhhutchins (talk) 18:24, 3 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

This article confuses two different people: the novelist Hazel Iris Addis (nee Wilson, 1900-1990) who wrote 21 novels under the pseudonym "Hazel Adair" between 1935 (Wanted a Son) and 1953 (No Bells Rang), another novel as "A.J. Heritage", and also wrote children's books (mainly for cubs) under her real name, and the television scriptwriter Hazel J. Adair who married Ronald Marriott in 1950 as Hazel J. Mackenzie - their children are listed in Ronald's death notice in The Times 28 Sept. 1972 p.30 (see also article in The Observer 7 March 1965 p.23). She is the author of Stranger from Space (with Ronald) and of Emergency Ward 10 (with Tessa Diamond) and The Crossroads Cookbook (with Peter Ling). Library catalogues are in error in equating these two distinct writers.
