Addresses: Contact: McIntosh & Otis, Inc., 310 Madison Ave., New York, NY 10017. "I hold that a writer who does not passionately believe in the perfectibility of man has no dedication nor any membership in literature." With this declaration, John Steinbeck accepted the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1962, becoming only the fifth American to receive one of the most prestigious awards in writing. In announcing the award, Nobel committee chair Anders Osterling, quoted in the Dictionary of Literary Biography Documentary Series, described Steinbeck as "an independent expounder of the truth with an unbiased instinct for what is genuinely American, be it good or ill." This was a reputation the author had earned in a long and distinguished career that produced some of the twentieth century's most acclaimed and popular novels.

Department of English English 167, Steinbeck, Fall 2015
San José State University Humanities and the Arts/ Department of English English 167, Steinbeck, Fall 2015 Instructor: Susan Shillinglaw Office Location: FOB 118 Telephone: 408-924-4487 Email: [email protected] Office Hours: Tuesday, 3-5; Thursday, 8-10 Class Days/Time: Tues/Thurs 12:00-1:15 Classroom: Sweeney Hall 348 Course Description John Steinbeck, Californian, was intimately connected with the region of his birth. Born in Salinas in 1902, he grew up loving the broad Salinas Valley, “Salad Bowl of the Nation.” On the shores of the nearby Pacific his family had a summer retreat, and throughout his life he yearned to be near the sea. At age 14, Steinbeck knew he wanted be a writer, and he spent a lifetime writing about humans living in place, about the connections between and among human, animals, environment, region. Long after he had left California for the east coast, John Steinbeck admitted that he kept “the tone of Salinas in my head like a remembered symphony.” This class will begin by considering Steinbeck’s finely honed sense of place, considering two books about the Salinas Valley, The Long Valley and East of Eden. Then we will consider Steinbeck as socially engaged writer: Of Mice and Men and The Grapes of Wrath will be the focus of discussion. Third is Steinbeck ecological vision, which was enriched by his friendship with marine biologist Edward F. Ricketts: we will discuss Sea of Cortez and Cannery Row. We will close the semester with a unit on Steinbeck’s treatment of Mexico in text and film; the focus will be on the documentary, The Forgotten Village, the novella and film of The Pearl; and Viva Zapata! As well as considering Steinbeck and region, we will consider the reasons why his is a quintessentially American voice, speaking eloquently and consistently for the concerns 2 of ordinary people.

Adrift in Steinbeck's Lifeboat
Adrift in Steinbeck's Lifeboat After the cinematic success of The Grapes of Wrath and Of Mice and Men in 1940, Steinbeck received some remunerative offers to write screenplays. He himself had no hand in the first screen adaptations of his work; the scenarios for Of Mice and Men and The Grapes of Wrath were by Eugene Solow and Nunnally Johnson respectively. Steinbeck was in no hurry to write commercial screenplays either of his own work, that of others, or original scenarios. He turned down $5000 a week from Darryl F. Zanuck in order to work for no pay on The Forgotten Village, which Herbert Kline filmed in Mexico. Since the production used illiterate Indian villagers who knew no English and in some cases spoke only Aztec, Steinbeck could not create a conventional script with dialogue but wrote a narrative, spoken by Burgess Meredith. He had no hand in the next two films made from his own books - MGM's 1942 version of Tortilla Flat and 20th Century-Fox's 1943 production of The Moon Is Down. When Nunnally Johnson asked Steinbeck for suggestions in adapting the latter, Steinbeck replied, "Tamper with it." Johnson did so successfully, in the process overcoming complaints that the story was "soft" on Nazism. Steinbeck's first writing for commercial cinema was for Lifeboat, a 20th Century-Fox film that was one of the more interesting movies of 1944. Lifeboat brings together the unlikely team of Steinbeck and Alfred Hitch- cock. The screen title announces "Alfred Hitchcock's production of Lifeboat by John Steinbeck." The actual scenario is by Jo Swerling, based upon an original unpublished story by Steinbeck.

S Teinbeck: Citizen Sp Y Timeline
In doing research for this book, it became quickly apparent that comparing Steinbeck’s travels and associations with government TIMELINE CITIZEN SPY STEINBECK: documentation might help me decipher Steinbeck’s dual life. I did not know what tidbits would be pertinent as I came across events in John’s life, so I compiled as detailed a timeline as possible. The majority of entries have a corresponding reference to aid in returning to material that seemed promising. Unreferenced events are sourced via major biographies and are generally accepted as accurate. The main source for referenced events in this timeline isSteinbeck: A Life in Letters. One has to assume that Steinbeck’s own record is the most accurate available. Where an exact date for an event is in question, I have attempted to note the estimation and why the estimation was made. I’ve also taken the liberty of including major world events into this timeline to place Steinbeck’s life in proper historical context. For convenience’s sake, references and citations for the timeline have been included at the end of the section. 1902 February 27: John Ernst Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California. He was the third of four children and the only son of John Ernst II and Olive Hamilton Steinbeck. 1915–19 Steinbeck attends Salinas High School. 1919 Summer: Steinbeck works at the Post Ranch and tracks the Big Sur Bear.1 1919–25: Attends classes at Stanford University, leaving without a degree. During these years, Steinbeck drops out for several months, and is employed intermittently as a sales clerk, farm laborer, ranch hand, and factory worker.

PRESS RELEASE: EMBARGOED UNTIL 06/09/18 My Life with John Steinbeck the Story of John Steinbeck’S Forgotten Wife
PRESS RELEASE: EMBARGOED UNTIL 06/09/18 My Life with John Steinbeck The story of John Steinbeck’s forgotten wife By Gwyn Conger Steinbeck As told to Douglas G. Brown Publishing 6th September 2018 Hardback: £19.99 (978-1-9996752-1-9) Trade paperback: £11.99 (978-1-9996752-0-2) E-book: £4.99 (978-1-9996752-2-6) “Often I am asked about my years with John, how I considered them. There is one simple answer – a tragedy. Yes, a tragedy, but a beautiful one.” Gwyn Steinbeck A significant literary discovery, this never before seen memoir delivers a unique and controversial portrait of the great American writer, John Steinbeck. Lost since 1972, and recently discovered in Wales, My Life with John Steinbeck allows Gwyn Steinbeck - John Steinbeck’s second wife and the mother of his two children – to tell her story for the first time in 46 years. 2018 is the 50th anniversary of John Steinbeck’s death (20th December 1968). My Life with John Steinbeck includes introductions by Gwyn Steinbeck, the interviewer and journalist Douglas G. Brown and the acclaimed biographer of John Steinbeck, Jay Parini John Steinbeck, along with Hemingway and Fitzgerald, is recognised around the world as one of the American literary giants of the twentieth century. He won the 1962 Nobel Prize in Literature, a Pulitzer Prize in 1940 and his works, including Of Mice and Men, The Grapes of Wrath and East of Eden, are considered classics of Western literature. But what do we really know about the man himself, of his complexities and his nature? This is the story of the years 1938-1948, which Steinbeck spent writing, travelling and revelling with an assortment of friends, peers and Hollywood legends, including Ernest Hemingway, Charlie Chaplin, Burl Ives and Alfred Hitchcock – brought to life by the woman who witnessed it all alongside him.

Of Bindlestiffs, Bad Times, Mice and Men the New York Times; September 27, 1992 by JAY PARINI
Of Bindlestiffs, Bad Times, Mice and Men The New York Times; September 27, 1992 By JAY PARINI 1 In John Steinbeck's 1937 classic Of Mice and Men, two bedraggled hobos (or bindlestiffs) wander through the shimmering rural landscape of northern California during the Great Depression, taking odd jobs as they move from farm to farm. Lennie is mildly retarded but strong. His best (and only) friend, George, is smart and paternalistic, though he sometimes wonders aloud if his life wouldn't be easier without Lennie. 2 "Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world," George says. "They got no family. They don't belong no place." What they do have, they discover, is each other. 3 Lennie and George take a job bucking barley for a ranch owner and his neurotically defensive son, Curley. And the story -- like Greek tragedy -- moves toward the wrenching conclusion that has reduced eighth-grade English students to tears, year after year. A new film version of the novel opens on Friday, directed and co- produced by Gary Sinise, who also plays George. The sad-faced John Malkovich appears as Lennie. 4 A revival of Of Mice and Men would have seemed out of place in years of Reaganomics, Donald Trump and Michael Milken, a time when Rambo supplied millions of filmgoers with a fantasy that masked what was really going on in their lives. Today the mega-deficit has hit home, and the streets are littered with Georges and Lennies. They dawdle in the parks, sleep in doorways and wait in line at soup kitchens.
