Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Thornton (Niven) Wilder (1897-1975) American writer and playwright, best known for the Pulitzer Prize awarded play OUR TOWN (1938). Wilder's breakthrough novel was THE BRIDGE OF SAN LUIS REY (1927), an examination of justice and altruism. The story focused on the fates of five travelers in the 18-century Peru, who happen to be crossing the finest bridge in the land when it breaks and throws them into the gulf below. A scholarly monk, Brother Juniper, interprets the story of each victim in an attempt to explain the working of divine providence. Surely, he argues, if there were any plan in the universe at all, if there were any pattern in human life, it could be discovered mysteriously latent in the lives of those particular people. But his book being done the text is pronounced heretical and and both Juniper and his work are burned by the Inquisition. "But soon we shall die and all memory of those five will have left earth, and we ourselves shall be loved for a while and forgotten. But the love will have been enough; all those impulses of love return to the love that made them. Even memory is not necessary for love. There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning." (from The Bridge of San Luis Rey Thornton Wilder was born in Madison, Wisconsin, as one of five children of Amos Parker Wilder, a newspaper editor, diplomat, and a strict Calvinist, and Isabella (Niven) Wilder. In 1906 the family moved to Hong Kong, where his father had been appointed American Consul General. After six months his mother returned with the children to the United States, but the family rejoined again in 1911 in Shanghai, where his father had been transferred. Wilder stayed in China for a year.

THORNTON WILDER Thornton Wilder had firsthand experience of China in the early 1910s when his father was appointed American consul in Shanghai and he was sent to a school run by British missionaries in Chefoo. Drawing on his personal experience of China, Wilder in his unpublished undergraduate writings returned again and again to the setting of "a certain treaty port on the Yang-tze Kiang river." He was inspired in 1930 by a New York performance by Mei Lan-fang, a legendary Chinese actor to transpose the Chinese "property man" into the stage manager and stress the minimalist setting of Chinese theater in Our Town Formal photograph of Thornton Wilder's father, Amos Parker Wilder, with Wu Ting Fang, Hong Kong envoy to the United States.

THORNTON WILDER (1897 - 1975) Thornton Niven Wilder was born in Madison, Wisconsin on April 17, 1897. His novel, "The Bridge of San Luis Rey" won the Pulitzer Prize in 1928. His play "Our Town" which was written in Peterborough, NH won the Pulitzer Prize for "Letters: Drama" in 1938. His play "The Skin of Our Teeth" won the same prize in 1943. The musical "Hello, Dolly" was based on his play "The Matchmaker." I first discovered Thornton's work in about 1963 when the University of MO at Kansas City (then KCU) staged his play "The Skin of Our Teeth." Dory DeAngelo played the part of Sabina and I was completely thrilled with her performance, and the play. I wrote to Thornton Wilder and received a very nice letter back from his sister, Isabel. Thornton's signature was included in the note. I wrote a few other times and each time received a nice note back. I was very sad in 1975 when I heard that Thornton Wilder had died. I think he is one of the best writers of this century. Perhaps this web page will lead you to discover Thornton's genius for yourself. It has been online since 1995......Emily M.
