 lewis padgett is/was one of the pseudonyms used by both the writing partnership of henry kuttner and c. l. moore, and also by henry kuttner writing alone°. decades later, catherine moore put on record which she remembered having co-written, and those definitely written by henry kuttner alone, and where collaborations had been mainly by one or other of them.

° - another was lawrence o'donnell
