William X. Kienzle (September 11, 1928 – December 28, 2001), born in Detroit, Michigan, was a priest turned crime novelist. Kienzle was ordained to the priesthood in 1954 and spent twenty years as a Roman Catholic parish priest. Kienzle left the priesthood in 1974 reportedly due to the church's refusal to remarry divorcees. From 1962-74 he was editor in chief of the archdiocese's newspaper, ''Michigan Catholic'', earning an award from Michigan's Knights of Columbus for general excellence in journalism and a Catholic Press Association acknowledgment for editorial writing. ==Career after leaving the priesthood== He became an editor of ''MPLS Magazine'' in Minneapolis, later moving to Texas, where he was director of the Center for Contemplative Studies at the Jesuit University of Dallas. He authored 24 crime fiction/mystery novels featuring Father Robert Koesler, a Catholic priest who doubles as a detective. One of his best-known novels is his first, ''The Rosary Murders'' (1978), which was made into a 1987 movie starring Donald Sutherland as Father Koesler, with a screenplay co-written by Elmore Leonard. His books are set mostly in Detroit.
