Dr. Richard Hornberger (1924-) Author
Using the pseudonym Richard Hooker he wrote "M*A*S*H" a fictionized account of his years in the 8055 Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War. He based 'Hawkeye' Pierce on himself (although he never liked Alda's portrayal). Made into a movie directed by Robert Altman and later into a very successful television series.
