Notă biografică
George Barr McCutcheon was an American playwright and famous author who lived from July 26, 1866, until October 23, 1928. His best-known works include the novel Brewster's Millions, which has been translated into a play and numerous films, and a series of books set in Graustark, a made-up nation in East Europe. In Indiana's Tippecanoe County, McCutcheon was born. Despite having no formal schooling himself, his father emphasized the importance of literature and urged his sons to write. McCutcheon's father worked a variety of occupations that needed him to traverse the county during McCutcheon's formative years. McCutcheon, a student at Purdue University, shared a room with comedian George Ade. He authored a satirical serial novel about life on the Wabash River while serving as editor of the Lafayette Daily Courier newspaper during his college years. Despite the fact that the first book in the Graustark series was released in 1901, McCutcheon rejected the label Romantic and sought to be known for his playwriting. He passed away in Manhattan, New York City, New York, and was the older brother of renowned cartoonist John T. McCutcheon. The Golden Age of Indiana Literature is thought to have included McCutcheon.
