'…and say my glory was I had such friends.' — WB YeatsF. Scott Fitzgerald and his Scribner’s Editor Maxwell Perkins
In October of 2009 I gave my first UK presentation, on F. Scott Fitzgerald and his Scribner’s Editor Maxwell Perkins, to the Birmingham and Midland Institute. We talked about how Perkins worked with one of his most famous writers through all his novels, including The Great Gatsby, and how Fitzgerald introduced Ernest Hemingway to Scribner’s.
It must have gone well–they asked me back for spring!
