95. Tom Wolfe, Author Of Hooking Up, A Man In Full, Bonfire Of The Vanities, And Oth
The book became a bestseller and established Wolfe as a leading figure in the literary experiments in nonfiction that became known as the New Journalism.
http://www.tomwolfe.com/authbio.htm
Tom Wolfe was born and raised in Richmond, Virginia. He was educated at Washington and Lee (B.A., 1951) and Yale (Ph.D., American Studies, 1957) Universities. In December 1956, he took a job as a reporter on the Springfield (Massachusetts) Union . This was the beginning of a ten-year newspaper career, most of it as a general assignment reporter. For six months in 1960 he served as The Washington Post 's Latin American correspondent and won the Washington Newspaper Guild's foreign news prize for his coverage of Cuba. In 1962 he became a reporter for the New York Herald Tribune and, in addition, one of the two staff writers (Jimmy Breslin was the other) of New York magazine, which began as the Herald Tribune 's Sunday supplement. While still a daily reporter for the Herald Tribune , he completed his first book, a collection of articles about the flamboyant Sixties written for New York and Esquire and published in 1965 by Farrar, Straus, and Giroux as The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby . The book became a bestseller and established Wolfe as a leading figure in the literary experiments in nonfiction that became known as the New Journalism. In 1968 he published two bestsellers on the same day: The Pump House Gang , made up of more articles about life in the Sixties, and The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test , a nonfiction story of the hippie era. In 1970 he published

Twentieth-century authors: Biographic and bibliographic information is just a click away
December 1999
Vol. 60, No. 11
by Michelle Mach and Cynthia D. Shirkey This column contains selected Web sites that cover English-language authors who are currently prominent or who flourished sometime in the 20th century.1 It will focus primarily on biographical and bibliographic information, with some information on literary criticism. While some primary texts from the early 20th century are available online, they were considered outside the scope of this column.
Most of the sites included are housed at academic institutions and are maintained by individual professors. In addition to these sources, Web sites of large booksellers often contain valuable information about contemporary authors, especially in the form of brief biographies, interviews, and book reviews. Newspapers and book publishers also sometimes preview opening chapters of recently published works. Starting points: meta sites and directories
