Walter Tevis has to have one of the most impressive adaptational track records of any author with more than one book/series. He wrote six books, four of them turned into highly successful and generally well-regarded film/TV versions.

I only knew the name Walter Tevis from my book of TMWFTE as a child. I had no idea he also wrote The Hustler, The Queen's Gambit and The Color of Money!

Philip K. Dick is the man to beat, though.
