Norman Mailer State Author 1991-1993 "A really great novel does not have something to say. It has the ability to stimulate the mind and spirit of the people who come in contact with it." Norman Mailer , novelist, nonfiction writer, essayist, screenwriter, ex political candidate and public persona was born in Long Branch, New Jersey on January 31, 1923. In 1927 his family moved to the Eastern Parkway section of Brooklyn, where he attended P.S. 161 and Boys' High School. At the age of 16, he entered Harvard University to study aeronautical engineering. While at Harvard he developed an interest in writing. A short story, "The Greatest Thing in the World," which he wrote for the Harvard Advocate, won Story magazine's college fiction prize. Mailer was inducted into the army in March 1944, less than a year after graduating with honors from Harvard with a B.S. in engineering. His experience in the army as a surveyor in the field artillery, an intelligence clerk in the cavalry and a rifleman with a reconnaissance platoon in the Philippine mountains, gave him the idea for a novel about World War II. Shortly after his discharge he began writing The Naked and the Dead which was published in 1948. The novel, a critical and commercial success, was at the top of the

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Truman Capote (1924-1984) - original name Truman Streckfus Persons American novelist, short story writer, and playwright. Capote gained international fame with his "nonfiction novel" IN COLD BLOOD (1966), an account of a real life crime in which an entire family was murdered by two sociopaths. The Louisiana-Mississippi-Alabama area provided the setting for much of Capote's fiction. "Until one morning in mid-November of 1959, few Americans - in fact, few Kansans - had ever heard of Holcomb. Like the waters of river, like the motorists on the highway, and like the yellow trains streaking down the Santa Fe tracks, drama, in the shape of exceptional happenings, had never stopped there." (from In Cold Blood In his childhood Capote made friends with Harper Lee, who portrayed him as Dill in her world famous novel To Kill a Mockingbird . "Dill was a curiosity. He wore blue linen shorts that buttoned to his shirt, his hair was snow white and stuck to his head like duckfluff; he was a year my senior but I towered over him. As he told us the old tale his blue eyes would lighten and darken; his laugh was sudden and happy; he habitually pulled at a cowlick in the center of his forehead." Capote started to write stories when he was only eight. He attended the Trinity School and St. John's Academy in New York, and the public schools of Greenwich, Connecticut, but ended his formal schooling at the age of seventeen. He found work at the

There is an expertise that can be achieved-a mastery of approaches and styles of presentation. We will cover the terrain of requirements, reading and discussing sample reviews, with each person writing, draft to finished product, a standard-length book review. I will ask you each to prepare by reading and reflecting on a recently issued novel of your choice, which will become the basis of the review you write. Bring 10 copies of the opening paragraph of the review you would imagine writing. We will alternate discussion with in-class writing. Each class member will get time to present a review.

IMAGINATION'S LEGACY A Celebration of Literature for Children and Young Adults Calgary Convention Centre ~ October 3-5, 1996 ~ Calgary, Alberta Photo: Franz Brandenburg Aliki Aliki's talent for art was recognized by her kindergarten teacher, but it was not until after her marriage, and her move to Switzerland, that her first book, The Story of William Tell , was published. Since then she has been a prolific writer and illustrator of both fiction and non-fiction books for children. By the summer of 1996, two more of her books will have appeared. Aliki was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA., and graduated from the Philadelphia College of Art.

But Hamilton's impact was equal to, if not greater than, that of any of the other Founding Fathers. As Ron Chernow notes in his powerful new biography, "If Washington was the father of the country and Madison was the father of the Constitution, then Alexander Hamilton was surely the father of the American government." Exhaustively researched and beautifully written, this 800-page volume tells us a great deal about the Founding Fathers and helps restore one of them to his rightful place in the pantheon.

News By Arifa Akbar Published: 15 June 2005 Johnson was a popular, if tortured, author in the 1960s and 1970s before his suicide at the age of 39. He gained fame - and notoriety - for his forthright views on the future of the novel and his idiosyncratic ways of putting them into practice. Having published only six novels in his lifetime and one posthumously, his innovations caused a stir, including a book with holes cut through the pages and a novel published in a box so the unbound chapters could be read in any order. In 1973, Johnson's lifelong depression reached a crisis point and he was found dead in his north London home, after which his works and public persona faded into obscurity. Coe has gained literary recognition for novels including What a Carve Up! for which he won the 1995 John Llewellyn Rhys Prize, and The House of Sleep, which received the Writers' Guild best fiction prize in 1997. He wrote the biography in an experimental, fragmentary style, speaking directly to the reader. Sue MacGregor, the chairwoman of the judges, praised Coe's engaging writing and his unconventional choice of subject, saying that the book was an example of a new form in the non-fiction genre.

Author Profiles 19th Century Oliver Optic (William T. Adams) (1822 - 1897) Massachusetts William T. Adams assumed the pen name "Oliver Optic" when he began writing children's books in the 1850s. A teacher by trade, Adams gained fame and fortune during his lifetime from the publication of numerous "boy adventure stories." John Townsend Trowbridge New York Beginning his career as a newspaper editor and anonymous contributor to various publications, Trowbridge first earned a name for himself upon publication of an anti-slavery novel. He wrote articles for the children's magazines Our Young Folks and Youth's Companion during and after the war. Of his Civil War novels, Cudjo's Cave was the most popular. According to the new introduction to a recent edition of the novel, Trowbridge was the first American novelist to depict a black man of pure African ancestry as noble and intelligent. Modern critics, however, label the character Pomp a stereotype.
