I can't think of a single female noir writer from that era.
Patricia Highsmith was a little later, but she does qualify.
Strangers on a Train is from 1950. I wonder if Margaret
Millar would qualify. Or some of Josephine Tey's work (Brat
Farrar, specifically).
On the other hand, there were a few female hardboiled
writers, such as Leigh Brackett and Dolores Hitchens.
Best,
