"Elyria Manufacturer Dies"
On this day in 1941 Sherwood Anderson died in Panama at the age of 64, of peritonitis brought on by swallowing a toothpick in an hors d'oeuvre. At age 36, Anderson threw over his life as a successful businessman in Elyria, Ohio to become, according to William Faulkner, "the father of my generation of American writers." |

"In the 1920s, author and social critic H. L. Mencken called him 'America's Most Distinctive Novelist.' Anderson was also a poet and a playwright, a newspaper editor and a political journalist. ... As a writer, Anderson is obscured by the generation of writers that followed him, by Hemingway and Faulkner especially, both of whom he helped to get started." | |
