Harper Lee

Thanks to Stanley for pointing out this story in today's Chicago Tribune: A life apart: Harper Lee, the complex woman behind 'a delicious mystery.' To Kill a Mockingbird has been a book that's haunted me since I first read it about 35 years ago and I've often wondered what the author is like. Now I know a little more. The only thing I knew about her before is that she lived next door to Truman Capote as a child, and that she helped him with the research for In Cold Blood, another book that had a big impact in my life.
