THE WRITER'S WRITER ~
Evan Connell
1924-2013
"The subjects that interested him ranged widely, frequently consumed him
and rarely rewarded him financially. Until the success of “Morning Star”
when he was 60, he lived modestly, working at whatever job he could
find — reading meters, delivering packages, accepting résumés at an
unemployment office — so that he could devote himself to writing. He
never married and had no children. He spent nearly every day writing or
researching his often dense subjects."
The New York Times
