Autorenporträt
Thornton Niven Wilder was an American author and writer who was born April 17, 1897, and died December 7, 1975. His books "The Bridge of San Luis Rey," "Our Town," and "The Skin of Our Teeth" won him three Pulitzer Prizes. His book "The Eighth Day" won him a U.S. National Book Award. Wilder was born in Madison, Wisconsin. His father, Amos Parker Wilder, was a newspaper editor and later a U.S. minister, and his mother, Isabella Thornton Niven, was a teacher. Wilder had five brothers, plus a twin who died before it was born. All of the Wilder children who are still alive spent some of their childhood in China while their father was U.S. Consul General in Hong Kong and Shanghai. The elder Wilder brother of Thornton became the Hollis Professor of Divinity at Harvard Divinity School. The field of theopoetics grew with the help of his work as a famous author. Isabel Wilder, their sister, was a great writer. It was their third sister; Charlotte Wilder was an artist and Janet Wilder Dakin was a zoologist.
