Lois Hire was a television writer known for her work on My Three Sons, The Brady Bunch, Bonanza, and The Beverly Hillbillies. She also wrote the 1975 comedy Half a House.

Born Lois Elkins in Selma, Alabama, she moved to Los Angeles during World War II and worked on an aircraft assembly line, where she met her future husband, Jack Hire.[1] The two had two children.

She enrolled in a script-writing extension course at Hollywood High School at the age of 44, and one of her instructors passed one of her assignments along to a friend who worked on The Loretta Young Show, where it was accepted and produced in 1960.[2]

Despite reservations from one TV show's sponsors (who told executives they "can't buy a script from some housewife in Van Nuys"),[3] Hire began to get more work, eventually going on to become one of the most prolific female TV writers of the '60s and '70s. She wrote over a dozen episodes of My Three Sons, four episodes of Bonanza, two episodes of The Brady Bunch, and more.
