Autorenporträt
Will Levington Comfort was a writer from the United States best known for his adventure tales, including Apache. Three of Comfort's writings have used as the basis for feature films. Somewhere in Sonora, based on his novel Somewhere South of Sonora, was remade in 1933 and starred John Wayne. The Will Levington Comfort Letters (2 volumes, 1920-21) are about theosophy and impacted many people, including Alice Bailey. Comfort connected Dane Rudhyar, a composer and astrologer, to Marc Edmund Jones, who introduced him to the study of astrology. Rudhyar married Comfort's secretary, Maria Contento. Comfort also had an impact on painters Mabel Alvarez and Agnes Pelton. Comfort attended Detroit public schools before enrolling at Albion College in Albion, Michigan. He previously worked as a newspaper reporter in Detroit, Michigan, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Kentucky. He was a member of the 5th US Cavalry during the Spanish-American War. Later, in 1899, he became a war correspondent. He visited the Philippines and China while working as a correspondent. In 1904, he also traveled to the Russian Empire and Japan as a correspondent. He later lived in Highland Park, a suburb of Los Angeles, California. During this era of his life, when he was interested with spiritual things, he published two periodicals: The Glass Hive and the Reconstruction Letter.
