So someone asked me recently if I knew of an author named James Michener. Truth be told, I don't. But I've done a little research.
He was apparently born in 1907, and in his 97 years he published over 40 titles. He never really knew his parents. His "mother" took in children and raised them.
One of his most well known works is "Tales of South Pacific" for which he won his Pulitzer Prize in 1948. He has also published some non-fiction works, as well as a memoir.
I read an interview by Mr. Michener. Click here to read the interview and find out a little more about James A. Michener.

Congrats on the removal of our cast!
Michener is the author of several "epic" (long but excellent) book. I'm currently reading "Space" by him. It's about America's trip to the moon. Quite revealing.
