ELIZABETH FARNSWORTH: Richard Rodriguez of the Pacific News Service considers the work of a distinguished American writer. RICHARD RODRIGUEZ: His name was William Saroyan. He was the first writer I fell in love with, boyishly in love. I was held by his unaffected voice, his sentimentality, his defiant individualism. I found myself in the stories he told. Saroyan was the son of Armenian parents who settled in Fresno, in California's Central Valley. He was born in 1908, almost my own father's age. Growing up in Sacramento a few hundred miles North a generation later I learned from Saroyan that you do not have to live in some great cityin New York or Parisin order to write. Life in Fresno can be rendered as literature. Late this spring and for most of the summer Stanford University is celebrating its acquisition of the literary archives of William Saroyan. Odd that the letters and the manuscripts of Saroyan would end up here. When I was a student at Stanford, a generation ago, the name of William Saroyan was never mentioned by any professor in the English Department. William Saroyan apparently was not considered a major American talent. Instead, we undergraduates set about the business of psychoanalyzing Hamlet and deconstructing Lolita. In my mind Saroyan belongs with John Steinbeck, a fellow small town Californian and of the same generation. He belongs with Thornton Wilder, with those writers whose aching love of America was formed by the Depression and the shadow of war.

Although Saroyan is best known for his prolific output as a playwright and a novelist, his place in American Abstract Expressionism is not to be overlooked. Born in 1908 in Fresno California to Armenian immigrant parents, William Saroyan would go on to become one of the top writers of the mid twentieth century. An incredibly talented writer, Saroyan tried his hand successfully at almost everything. Novels, plays, songs, and short stories all grace this writer's resume. His birthplace of Fresno and his experiences in the San Joaquin Valley proved useful to his later writing. His father died when he was three years old, after which he was sent to an orphanage for four years. He left school at the young age of 15 and decided to become a writer. This decision was based partly on his own father's attempts at writing. His experience with death at such a young age, his time spent in the orphanage, and in later years, his formal schooling, created the "joyous sorrow" which characterizes Saroyan's works. He started to make his living from writing in 1934, after 1934's short story "The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze". In 1939 My Heart's in the Highlands opened to critical acclaim. His next big step came with the play Time of Your Life later in the same year, which was given the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Though he refused the prize for himself on grounds that art should not be given awards, especially by the rich who had no understanding of such things. However, he did accept the Drama Critic's Circle Award in that same year. Shortly after, in 1940, he again established himself in the genre of short stories with his collection titled My Name is Aram. 1940 also found Saroyan at MGM filming The Human Comedy. This novel turned movie won the Academy Award for best picture and original story for the play.
