Thomas Wolfe Thomas Wolfe was born in Asheville in 1900. His mother was a woman of the mountain, his father a stonecutter from Pennsylvania. In public schools and later in a private academy, he observed carefully the life around him. He stored away in hismind hte ten thousands of impressions later to be used in the most impressive books ever written by a North Carolinian. The town of Asheville was just then expanding into a bustling resort. But young, tall Tom Wolfe was not satisfied. He was always looking out beyond the hills which he said "hemmed" him in. At fifteen he entered the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and, before his graduation, became one of the most important figures on the campus. Besides majoring in English, he worked for the college publications and studied playwriting under "Proff" Koch. Determined on a career as a professional dramatist, he went to Harvard for a master's degree and, when his plays were not accepted immediately by Broadway producers, began teaching English at New York University. On a trip abroad he suddenly started writing out the vivid recollections of his boyhood in Asheville, which he called Atlamont. Teh result was Look Homeward, Angel

Thomas Wolfe Asheville, North Carolina North Carolina's most famous and perhaps greatest writer, Thomas Wolfe, was born in Asheville, the eighth child of a Pennsylvania stonecutter and his third wife, a hill country school teacher. Wolfe grew up in his mother's boarding house. An exceptional student, he started public school before he was six, and at age eleven transferred at his teachers' request to a private school. He entered the university at Chapel Hill at fifteen "an awkward, unhappy misfit." By the time he graduated, he was editor of the college newspaper and had seen several of his plays produced by the Carolina Playmakers. Planning to become a dramatist, he went to Harvard, then to New York, where no one would produce his very long plays. To "buy time," he took a job teaching at New York University. During a 1926 trip to Europe, he began writing down his early memories of Asheville. He abandoned playwriting, and after three years of writing, revision and editing, published Look Homeward, Angel: A Story of the Buried Life

Wolfe told his doctors he believed that he became sick while on a July 4th cruise to Vancouver on the Canadian Pacific steamship, Princess Kathleen . On the ship, he shared a drink of whisky with a shivering man, whom he would later call "a poor shivering wretch." The next day he became very sick and decided to make his way back to Seattle. The illness eventually developed into pneumonia and he was initially treated by Dr. E. C. Ruge, the physician of the Stevens, a Seattle literary couple Wolfe had recently met. Wolfe was terrified of hospitals, so instead of going to one when he should have, he went to recover at Dr. Ruge's sanitarium, Firlawns. Wolfe was not healing as the doctor expected he should. Ruge was a former TB specialist and realized that there was something else wrong. Dr. Charles E. Watts was brought in for consultation. Wolfe was taken to Providence Hospital where he was given x-rays and tests. A large spot was revealed on Wolfe's right lung. The two doctors both had different diagnoses. Ruge thought the spot was an old tubercular condition, but Watts did not think it showed tuberculosis. Ruge, certain that it was TB, told Wolfe what he thought. Wolfe, angry and afraid, removed Dr. Ruge from his case and put Dr. Watts in charge.
