Happy Birthday, Gay Talese!
The Carson McCullers Center wishes a Happy Birthday today to author Gay Talese, who with his wife Nan Talese was a guest at the Carson McCullers Center last year. Talese, who is credited with developing "New Journalism," himself credits McCullers with having been a major influence on his own writing.
A Little Dartmouth Reunion at the McCullers House
Pictured here are Thornton Jordan and visiting poet Cleopatra Mathis, in the dining room of the Carson McCullers childhood home in Columbus. Professor Mathis, who is the Director of the Creative Writing Program and the Frederick Sessions Beebe Professor in the English Department at Dartmouth College, was in town to give two poetry presentations sponsored by the Center in collaboration with the Georgia Poetry Circuit. Dr. Jordan, who in 2002 donated the Smith-McCullers House to Columbus State University to establish the Carson McCullers Center, is a graduate of Dartmouth.
