Eric Jerome Dickey, best-selling African American novelist, dies at 59 Emily Langer Eric Jerome Dickey, a novelist who gained a devoted following among African American women and a steady spot on the bestseller lists with page-turning narratives of steamy romance and urban intrigue, died Jan. 3 in Los Angeles. He was 59. The cause was cancer, according to Amanda Walker, publicity director at Dutton, the imprint of Penguin Random House that published Mr. Dickey’s books. A onetime software engineer who discovered fiction through creative writing classes, Mr. Dickey wrote 29 books that together sold more than 7 million copies, according to Dutton.
