Truman Capote was born in New Orleans in 1924. Following his parents’ divorce four years later, he was sent to Monroeville, Alabama, to be raised by his mother’s relatives. In 1933 he went to live with his mother in New York, and began working at The New Yorker at the age of 19. His first novel, Other Voices, Other Rooms (1948), earned him an international literary reputation. Along with Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1958), his major successes include The Grass Harp (1951) and In Cold Blood (1965), but he is equally remembered for his flamboyant, controversial lifestyle and penchant for the glittering world of high society. He died in 1984.
