Autorenporträt
James Oliver Curwood was an American action-adventure author and conservationist who lived from June 12, 1878, until August 13, 1927. According to a study, in the early and mid-1920s, his books were among the top ten best sellers in the United States and frequently included exploits that took place in the Hudson Bay region, the Yukon, or Alaska. His novels and short stories have served as the basis for at least 188 films, of which one was made in three different versions between 1919 and 1953. Curwood was the highest-paid author in the world (per word) at the time of his passing. In his hometown of Owosso, Michigan, he erected Curwood Castle as a venue to welcome visitors and as a writing studio. The castle is currently a museum run by the city and was included on the National Register of Historic Places. The annual Curwood Festival is held in his honor in the city. In Owosso, Michigan, Curwood was born as the youngest of four kids. Curwood attended neighborhood schools but dropped out before his senior year. He was admitted to the English department at the University of Michigan where he studied journalism after passing the entrance exam.
