Autorenporträt
American writer Howard Roger Garis is well renowned for his books about the endearing old rabbit Uncle Wiggily Longears. Lansing Campbell illustrated a number of his novels. Possibly the most prolific children's writers of the early 20th century were Garis and his wife, Lilian Garis. The birthplace of Garis is Binghamton, New York. He was employed as a reporter for the Newark Evening News, as was his spouse Lilian Garis. He also worked part-time for WNJR in Newark. Garis's son Roger Garis wrote numerous books under his own name and under pen names, including a four-volume children's adventure/mystery series for A. L. Burt, and authored a biography of the writer Garis family, My Father Was Uncle Wiggily (McGraw-Hill, 1966). A. L. Burt published a three-volume children's mystery series written by his daughter, Cleo F. Leslie Garis, his granddaughter, wrote The House of Happy Endings (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2007), a more candid memoir of the Garis family.
