James A. Michener was born in New York
City in 1907 and traveled extensively throughout the United States as a young
adult. He graduated with honors from Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and
also attended St. Andrew's University in Scotland before returning to teach in
Pennsylvania. Michener subsequently held teaching positions at the Colorado
State Teachers College and Harvard University, and then worked as a textbook
editor in New York until World War II erupted. Young Michener joined the Navy
and his experiences in the Pacific Theater helped shape his first book,
Tales of the South Pacific, which went on to
win the Pulitzer Prize. Throughout his writing career, Michener drew acclaim
for his masterfully crafted historical novels, among them
Texas, published in 1985. Tracing the lives
of four families, this epic spans four centuries and two continents and charts
the formation of several great dynasties from the age of the conquistadors to
modern times.
Michener's involvement in public policy issues included a run for
Congress in 1962, serving as secretary to the Pennsylvania constitutional
convention, and acting as an advisor to NASA, the U.S. Postal Service, and the
International Broadcasting Board. His many honors and awards included
recognition by the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities and the
United States' highest civilian honor, the Medal of Freedom. Michener spent his
final years based at the University of Texas at Austin and died in 1997.
Manuscripts, literary productions,
printed material, research notes, photographs, computer discs, correspondence,
original drawings, legal documents, newspaper clippings and audio recordings
relate to James A. Michener and his work on the novel Texas, as well as his association with the University of
Texas and the Texas Center for Writers.
Film reels and photographic negatives
are restricted; contact repository for more information.
