Author ____ Hemingway (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ernest

'author hemingway' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ernest that I've seen before include "character for Wilde" , "Male" , "Name sounds serious" , "A new genre is myth (anag) -- author" , "chap" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, the LA Times, The Star Tribune and the Newsday.
