Peter Maas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759510029776-5W5AIRJ93NLFO2QFXBGI/Francesca+Wade_Gertrude+Stein_An+Afterlife_news+cover.jpg News - How the Leon Levy Fellowship Became a Launchpad for Acclaimed Biographies - Five years ago, when Francesca Wade began what she termed a “completely transformative” fellowship at the CUNY Graduate Center’s Leon Levy Center for Biography, she had, she said, “little more than a kernel of an idea” for a biography of writer Gertrude Stein. In May, her book Gertrude Stein: An Afterlife was published in London, drawing positive reviews. And in October, the book will debut in the U.S., which Wade describes as a homecoming for Stein, an American who lived her adult life in Paris. The release is also a home run for Wade, who joins three other Leon Levy Center for Biography fellows from 2020 – 2021 in having their biographies published this year, all to critical acclaim. The biography by the fifth fellow from that year is due out next spring. "Biography is arduous, painstaking work,” said Kai Bird, the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer who directs the Leon Levy Center. “It is most unusual for all five of our biography fellows from the same cohort to publish within the same year.” Wade and her fellow fellows, in turn, praise the year-long fellowship — one of only a handful in the U.S. exclusively for the writing of biography — which offers access to research facilities, research assistance, and a stipend, for incubating their work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/719f6b36-d418-4ee6-8ac9-530eeb25bbfe/LLCB_Susan-Morrison_Lorne-cover.jpg News - How the Leon Levy Fellowship Became a Launchpad for Acclaimed Biographies - Susan Morrison’s biography of Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels, Lorne: The Man Who Invented “Saturday Night Live,” came out first, in February, to praise and popularity. It debuted at number four on The New York Times bestseller list in March. A Times reviewer described it as “briskly written and solidly sourced.” The Los Angeles Times called the book, which combines reporting from the SNL set with extensive interviews, “indispensable, especially for SNL completists.” In a public conversation with Times columnist Maureen Dowd at the Graduate Center in April, Morrison, an editor at The New Yorker, said she conceived the book 10 years before it came out and spoke to Michaels about 50 times and to “all of his people.” She had completed about 80% of her reporting and was just beginning what she describes as “the daunting task of paring down the material and writing chapters” when she started the Leon Levy fellowship. “The fellowship was a dream, for several reasons,” she said recently over email. She was far from colleagues on Shelter Island at the start of the COVID lockdown, and “having this group of engaged, bright, fun people to Zoom with and discuss biographical conundrums once a month was a lifesaver,” she said. “I'd never written anything approaching this in length or complexity, and hearing advice and tips from the other fellows, and from Kai Bird and Thad, was indispensable,” Morrison added, referring to the center’s executive director and associate director, Thad Ziolkowski. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/7712e313-9b30-4ea7-8c08-36bc7f56d078/LLCB_Nicholas-Boggs_Baldwin-cover.jpg News - How the Leon Levy Fellowship Became a Launchpad for Acclaimed Biographies - Nicholas Boggs’ Baldwin: A Love Story, a biography of the writer and civil rights activist James Baldwin, released in August, similarly catapulted to The New York Times bestseller list and drew accolades. Now a finalist for the Kirkus Prize, the book was hailed in the Times as “stunning,” written with “a commanding, sure-footed authority and comprehensiveness, subtle and solemn at once, that dazzles and awes.” Boggs, who will discuss his book at the Graduate Center on November 19, discovered Baldwin when he was in ninth grade. Later, he shepherded a manuscript of a children’s book by Baldwin into a published work. He spent 30 years on his Baldwin biography in part because, he said at a book tour event at Politics and Prose bookstore in his hometown of Washington, D.C., he had no idea what form it would take. He also admitted he had never read an entire biography before receiving his book contract. “I never thought of myself as a biographer, even as a scholar,” he said. “I thought of myself as a writer.” By the time he began his Leon Levy Center fellowship, a year after receiving his contract, he acknowledged that he was a biographer. The fellowship “had an immensely positive impact,” he said. “The sense of community, even or especially during the pandemic, and the focused attention on my writing in the meetings, as well as simply the time and freedom to focus on the book, were invaluable.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/59a7c0f9-aa32-4adb-92e2-a21690115091/LLCB_Lance-Richardson_True-Nature-cover.jpg News - How the Leon Levy Fellowship Became a Launchpad for Acclaimed Biographies - Lance Richardson had written one acclaimed biography and was in the early stages of his second one on writer Peter Matthiessen when he started the fellowship. “Writing a book is already a lonely endeavor, and the pandemic isolation threatened to make it even lonelier,” Richardson said. “But the Leon Levy fellowship, because of our regular Zoom discussions, gave me a sense of community support that proved vital in the early stages of writing.” Richardson’s book True Nature: The Pilgrimage of Peter Matthiessen is already drawing attention and accolades ahead of its October publication. A review in The American Scholar described the book, which is based on over 200 interviews, as “enthralling, expertly told, and based on extraordinary research.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/7fdfce87-ddf4-4341-b77f-f5164ebf2bc4/LLCB_Miriam-Horn_Schaller-Homesick-cover.jpg News - How the Leon Levy Fellowship Became a Launchpad for Acclaimed Biographies - Writer and environmental advocate Miriam Horn received her fellowship for a biography of wildlife biologist George Schaller, which comes out from Penguin Press in April. She was deep into her research but hadn’t started writing the book when she began the fellowship, which “could not have come at a better time,” she said. “Our monthly Zooms were a respite from the doubled isolation of the pandemic and biography-writing. She, like Wade, praised her research assistant, Graduate Center History Ph.D. candidate Kate Kelley, who helped her organize and track down documents and even translate materials from German. Horn especially valued Bird’s urging her and others to write even as their research continued. “I had been procrastinating, telling myself that I had to just read a few more field journals,” she said. “But I did not want to squander the benefit of having such brilliant readers.” She knuckled down and started writing. She advises other biographers and aspiring biographers to do the same. “Heed Kai,” she said. “Start writing before you feel ready.” She added, “Perhaps most importantly, find many people who will listen to you talk and talk about your subject, so you don’t wear any one of them out.” https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/news/former-fellow-cynthia-carr-wins-2024-book-critics-circle-award-in-biography monthly 0.5 2025-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/53ceae65-06e8-49df-a9b2-69d9f0604c11/Cynthia+Carr.jpg News - Former Fellow Cynthia Carr Wins 2024 National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography - Each year, the National Book Critics Circle presents awards for the finest books published in English in six categories: Fiction, Nonfiction, Biography, Autobiography, Poetry, and Criticism.

World Unknown: The Life of George B. Schaller - Miriam Horn is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow In this riveting portrait of George B. Schaller, the world’s leading field biologist, Miriam Horn captures the seventy years he spent living among wild animals in the world’s remotest regions, forever altering how we see – and save – the natural world. In 1959, at just twenty-six years old and as a graduate student in biology, George B. Schaller shrugged off warnings of mortal danger and set off for the Belgian Congo to do what no other scientist had dared: study mountain gorillas, the real King Kong, by living alongside them. Boldly refusing arms and retinue, Schaller and his wife, Kay, established a home in the jungle and came to share the apes’ rhythms and rules. After more than two years of immersive research—a groundbreaking methodology he would spend his life honing—Schaller transformed how the world viewed gorillas; they were not murderous brutes but tender creatures, and more like humans than any twentieth-century scientist had recognized. His mission to revolutionize our perceptions of wild animals would propel him across four continents and inspire generations of scientists. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/gertrude-stein-an-afterlife monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759516264667-9U6JGZALYXYGZ7R6QPYA/Francesca+Wade_Gertrude+Stein_An+Afterlife_book+cover.jpg Biographies - Francesca Wade; Gertrude Stein: An Afterlife - Francesca Wade is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow Drawing on never-before-seen interviews, a richly researched, sweeping examination of one of the most influential and mythologized literary figures of the 20th century and her partner’s emergence from the shadows after her death, in the decades-long fight to ensure her legacy. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/baldwin-a-love-story monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759515100649-BXPOHQ0WWC22L60P5YQL/Nicholas+Boggs-a+love+story-baldwin.jpg Biographies - Nicholas Boggs; Baldwin: A Love Story - Nicholas Boggs is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow Baldwin: A Love Story, the first major biography of James Baldwin in three decades, reveals how profoundly the writer’s personal relationships shaped his life and work. Drawing on newly uncovered archival material and original research and interviews, this spellbinding book tells the overlapping stories of Baldwin’s most sustaining intimate and artistic relationships: with his mentor, the Black American painter Beauford Delaney; with his lover and muse, the Swiss painter Lucien Happersberger; and with his collaborators, the famed Turkish actor Engin Cezzar and the iconoclastic French artist Yoran Cazac, whose long-overlooked significance as Baldwin’s last great love is explored in these pages for the first time. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/true-nature-the-pilgrimage-of-peter-matthiessen monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759515581219-OH3RZNV7KRLH3YQOLD5G/Lance-Richardson_True+Nature.jpg Biographies - Lance Richardson; True Nature: The Pilgrimage of Peter Matthiessen - Lance Richardson is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow Peter Matthiessen (1927 – 2014), a towering figure of twentieth-century American letters, achieved so much during his lifetime, in so many different areas, that people have struggled to pin him down. While ambivalent about his WASP privilege—as a teenager he demanded that his name be removed from the New York Social Register—he attended Yale and cut his teeth in postwar Paris, co-founding The Paris Review as he worked undercover for the CIA. But then, after a rebellious stint as a Long Island fisherman, he escaped into a series of wild expeditions. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/candy-darling-dreamer-icon-superstar monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759517639172-R7XP8UUTDA1DBBEL3PHH/Cynthia-Carr_Candy+Darling-+Dreamer%2C+Icon%2C+Superstar.jpg Biographies - Cynthia Carr; Candy Darling: Dreamer, Icon, Superstar - Cynthia Carr is a 2016 – 2017 Fellow Warhol superstar and transgender icon Candy Darling was glamour personified, but she was without a real place in the world. Growing up on Long Island, lonely and quiet and queer, she was enchanted by Hollywood starlets like Kim Novak. She found her turn in New York’s early Off-Off-Broadway theater scene, in Warhol’s films Flesh and Women in Revolt, and at the famed nightclub Max's Kansas City. She inspired songs by Lou Reed and the Rolling Stones. She became friends with Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, borrowed a dress from Lauren Hutton, posed for Richard Avedon, and performed alongside Tennessee Williams in his own play. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/lorne-the-man-who-invented-saturday-night-live monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759517382448-2AIL3WLI8L8RG8K7VSUA/Susan-Morrison_Lorne-+The+Man+Who+Invented+Saturday+Night+Live.jpg Biographies - Susan Morrison; Lorne: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live - Susan Morrison is a 2020 – 2021 Fellow Over the fifty years that Lorne Michaels has been at the helm of Saturday Night Live, he has become a revered and inimitable presence in the entertainment world. He’s a tastemaker, a mogul, a withholding father figure, a genius spotter of talent, a shrewd businessman, a name-dropper, a raconteur, the inspiration for Dr. Evil, the winner of more than a hundred Emmys – and, essentially, a mystery. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/the-272-the-families-who-were-enslaved-and-sold-to-build-the-american-catholic-church monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759517091910-5S4GBNTFIAAB6Q0FOKD7/Rachel+Swarns_The+272.jpeg Biographies - Rachel Swarns; The 272: The Families Who Were Enslaved and Sold to Build the American Catholic Church - Rachel Swarns is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow In 1838, a group of America’s most prominent Catholic priests sold 272 enslaved people to save their largest mission project, what is now Georgetown University. In this groundbreaking account, journalist, author, and professor Rachel L. Swarns follows one family through nearly two centuries of indentured servitude and enslavement to uncover the harrowing origin story of the Catholic Church in the United States. Through the saga of the Mahoney family, Swarns illustrates how the Church relied on slave labor and slave sales to sustain its operations and to help finance its expansion. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/john-lewis-a-life monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759516602286-1VADL8QHMJB3XGCJYLIZ/David+Greenberg_John+Lewis.jpg Biographies - David Greenberg; John Lewis: A Life - David Greenberg is a 2019 – 2020 Fellow Born into poverty in rural Alabama, John Lewis rose to prominence in the civil rights movement, becoming second only to Martin Luther King, Jr. in his contributions.

It spurred him on a journey to become one of the world’s most influential mathematicians, philosophers, and physicists. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/the-rebels-clinic-the-revolutionary-lives-of-frantz-fanon monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759513700656-A9QCYMH89HLEDIGLJ1BN/Adam-Shatz_Fanon.jpg Biographies - Adam Shatz; The Rebel's Clinic: The Revolutionary Lives of Frantz Fanon - Adam Shatz is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow In the era of Black Lives Matter, Frantz Fanon’s shadow looms larger than ever. He was the intellectual activist of the postcolonial era, and his writings about race, revolution, and the psychology of power continue to shape radical movements across the world. In this searching biography, Adam Shatz tells the story of Fanon’s stunning journey, which has all the twists of a Cold War–era thriller. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/love-and-need-the-life-of-robert-frosts-poetry monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759513246320-LRS34E2VDJWWRKAP6Y7J/Adam-Plunkett_Love+and+Need.jpg Biographies - Adam Plunkett; Love and Need: The Life of Robert Frost’s Poetry - Adam Plunkett is a 2016 – 2017 Fellow By the middle of the twentieth century, Robert Frost was the best-loved poet in America. He was our nation’s bard, simple and sincere, accompanying us on wooded roads and articulating our hopes and fears. After Frost’s death, these clichés gave way to equally broad (though opposed) portraits sketched by his biographers, chief among them Lawrance Thompson. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/crumb-a-cartoonists-life monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759512936856-K55QI604EI3Y38AZI29V/Dan-Nadel_Crumb.jpg Biographies - Dan Nadel; Crumb: A Cartoonist's Life - Dan Nadel is a 2021 – 2022 Fellow Robert Crumb is often credited with single-handedly transforming the comics medium into a place for adult expression, in the process pioneering the underground comic book industry, and transforming the vernacular language of 20th-century America into an instantly recognizable and popular aesthetic. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/sister-sinner-the-miraculous-life-and-mysterious-disappearance-of-aimee-semple-mcpherson monthly 0.5 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1759512509022-8JIEZ9G7Y64H15K4CP5M/Claire-Hoffman_Sister-Sinner.jpg Biographies - Claire Hoffman; Sister, Sinner: The Miraculous Life and Mysterious Disappearance of Aimee Semple McPherson - Claire Hoffman is a 2023 – 2024 Fellow On a spring day in 1926, Aimee Semple McPherson wandered into the Pacific Ocean and vanished.

Conway found fame as a barefoot professor at Cambridge, where he discovered the Conway groups in mathematical symmetry and the aptly named surreal numbers. He also invented the cult classic Game of Life, a cellular automaton that demonstrates how simplicity generates complexity—and provides an analogy for mathematics and the entire universe. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/saxophone-colossus-music-sonny-rollins-aidan-levy-xjs2s monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/2ddb145f-c484-4c89-9b4b-9f068a91f0c0/Levy_Aidan_Saxophone+Colossus_The+Lie+and+Music+of+Sonny+Rollins_cover.webp Biographies - Aidan Levy; Saxophone Colossus: The Life and Music of Sonny Rollins - Aidan Levy is a 2016 – 2017 Fellow Sonny Rollins has long been considered an enigma. Known as the “Saxophone Colossus,” he is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest jazz improvisers of all time, winning Grammys, the Austrian Cross of Honor, Sweden’s Polar Music Prize and a National Medal of Arts. A bridge from bebop to the avant-garde, he is a lasting link to the golden age of jazz, pictured in the iconic “Great Day in Harlem” portrait. His seven-decade career has been well documented, but the backstage life of the man once called “the only jazz recluse” has gone largely untold – until now. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/finale-late-conversations-with-stephen-sondheim monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1757076299570-G6F7OKM5I20QOC73OKKY/Max_D.T._Finale-Stephen-Sondheim.jpg Biographies - D.

With unprecedented, exclusive access to family archives, award-winning journalist and biographer Andrew Meier vividly chronicles how the Morgenthaus amassed a fortune in Manhattan real estate, advised presidents, advanced the New Deal, exposed the Armenian genocide, rescued victims of the Holocaust, waged war in the Mediterranean and Pacific, and, from a foundation of private wealth, built a dynasty of public service. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/clairvoyant-of-the-small-the-life-of-robert-walser monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/44316052-efa2-4075-8456-cca1bf33d532/Bernofsky_Susan_Clairvoyant-of-the-small.jpg Biographies - Susan Bernofsky; Clairvoyant of the Small: The Life of Robert Walser - Susan Bernofsky is a 2012 – 2013 Fellow and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography The great Swiss-German modernist author Robert Walser lived eccentrically on the fringes of European society—his pronounced interest in everything inconspicuous and modest prompted W. G. Sebald to dub him “a clairvoyant of the small.” His revolutionary use of short prose forms won him the admiration of Franz Kafka, Walter Benjamin, Robert Musil, and many others. In this immaculately researched and beautifully written biography Susan Bernofsky sets Walser in the context of early twentieth century European history, establishing him as one of the most important modernist writers. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/all-the-frequent-troubles-of-our-days monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/8fdb82b7-a075-4139-a585-7e265a4f3c3f/Donner_Rebecca_All+The+Frequent+Troubles+of+Our+Days.png Biographies - Rebecca Donner: All The Frequent Troubles of Our Days: The True Story of the American Woman at the Heart of the German Resistance to Hitler - Rebecca Donner is a 2018 – 2019 Fellow Born and raised in Milwaukee, Mildred Harnack was twenty-six when she enrolled in a PhD program in Germany and witnessed the meteoric rise of the Nazi party. In 1932, she began holding secret meetings in her apartment -- a small band of political activists that by 1940 had grown into the largest underground resistance group in Berlin. She recruited working-class Germans into the resistance, helped Jews escape, plotted acts of sabotage, and collaborated in writing leaflets that denounced Hitler's regime and called for revolution. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/heather-clark-red-comet-the-short-life-and-blazing-art-of-sylvia-plath monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/998f805c-745e-4dbb-8e96-a81131fb2741/Red+Comet-+The+Short+Life+and+Blazing+Art+of+Sylvia+Plath.jpg Biographies - Heather Clark: Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of Sylvia Plath - Heather Clark is a 2016 – 2017 Fellow With a wealth of never-before-accessed materials, Heather Clark brings to life the brilliant Sylvia Plath, who had precocious poetic ambition and was an accomplished published writer even before she became a star at Smith College.

Williams (1878–1948), the chief porter of Grand Central Terminal’s Red Caps―a multitude of Harlem-based black men whom he organized into the essential labor force of America’s most august railroad station.

Written with enormous style and artistry, and based on more than one hundred interviews and research in archives across Russia, Europe, and the Americas, Mr. B carries us through Balanchine’s tumultuous and high-pitched life story and into the making of his extraordinary dances. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/james-davis-eric-walrond-a-life-in-the-harlem-renaissance-and-the-transatlantic-caribbean monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/66b48686-c7e8-4649-bb30-7119c6617a97/Davis_Eric-Walrond-A-Life-in-the-Harlem-Renaissance.jpg Biographies - James Davis; Eric Walrond: A Life in the Harlem Renaissance and the Transatlantic Caribbean - James Davis is a 2008 – 2009 Fellow Eric Walrond (1898–1966) was a writer, journalist, caustic critic, and fixture of 1920s Harlem. His short story collection, Tropic Death, was one of the first efforts by a black author to depict Caribbean lives and voices in American fiction. Restoring Walrond to his proper place as a luminary of the Harlem Renaissance, this biography situates Tropic Death within the author's broader corpus and positions the work as a catalyst and driving force behind the New Negro literary movement in America. James Davis follows Walrond from the West Indies to Panama, New York, France, and finally England. He recounts his relationships with New Negro authors such as Countée Cullen, Charles S. Johnson, Zora Neale Hurston, Alain Locke, and Gwendolyn Bennett, as well as the white novelist Carl Van Vechten. He also recovers Walrond's involvement with Marcus Garvey's journal Negro World and the National Urban League journal Opportunity and examines the writer's work for mainstream venues, including Vanity Fair. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/michael-massing-fatal-discord-erasmus-luther-and-the-fight-for-the-western-mind monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/abe7f855-5227-4766-86d6-bd7def25d284/Fatal+Discord-+Erasmus%2C+Luther%2C+and+the+Fight+for+the+Western+Mind.jpg Biographies - Michael Massing; Fatal Discord: Erasmus, Luther, and the Fight for the Western Mind - Michael Massing is a 2010 – 2011 Fellow At a time when Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael were revolutionizing Western art and culture, Erasmus of Rotterdam was helping to transform Europe's intellectual and religious life, developing a new design for living for a continent rebelling against the hierarchical constraints of the Roman Church. When in 1516 he came out with a revised edition of the New Testament based on the original Greek, he was hailed as the prophet of a new enlightened age. Today, however, Erasmus is largely forgotten, and the reason can be summed up in two words: Martin Luther. As a young friar in remote Wittenberg, Luther was initially a great admirer of Erasmus and his critique of the Catholic Church, but while Erasmus sought to reform that institution from within, Luther wanted a more radical transformation. Eventually, the differences between them flared into a bitter rivalry, with each trying to win over Europe to his vision. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/vanda-krefft-the-man-who-made-the-movies-the-meteoric-rise-and-tragic-fall-of-william-fox monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/7f5e7ced-5ab9-45b0-b984-a867d4bd330b/The+Man+Who+Made+the+Movies-+The+Meteoric+Rise+and+Tragic+Fall+of+William+Fox.jpg Biographies - Vanda Krefft; The Man Who Made the Movies: The Meteoric Rise and Tragic Fall of William Fox - Vanda Krefft is a 2009 – 2010 Fellow A riveting story of ambition, greed, and genius unfolding at the dawn of modern America. This landmark biography brings into focus a fascinating brilliant entrepreneur—like Steve Jobs or Walt Disney, a true American visionary—who risked everything to realize his bold dream of a Hollywood empire. Although a major Hollywood studio still bears William Fox’s name, the man himself has mostly been forgotten by history, even written off as a failure. Now, in this fascinating biography, Vanda Krefft corrects the record, explaining why Fox’s legacy is central to the history of Hollywood. At the heart of William Fox’s life was the myth of the American Dream. His story intertwines the fate of the nineteenth-century immigrants who flooded into New York, the city’s vibrant and ruthless gilded age history, and the birth of America’s movie industry amid the dawn of the modern era. Drawing on a decade of original research, The Man Who Made the Movies offers a rich, compelling look at a complex man emblematic of his time, one of the most fascinating and formative eras in American history. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/jed-perl-calder-the-conquest-of-time-the-early-years-1898-1940 monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/3c021f55-35b3-46ea-b9fa-51369008b9a9/Calder-+The+Conquest+of+Time-+The+Early+Years-+1898-1940.jpg Biographies - Jed Perl; Calder: The Conquest of Time: The Early Years: 1898-1940 - Jed Perl is a 2010 – 2011 Fellow The first biography of America's greatest twentieth-century sculptor, Alexander Calder: an authoritative and revelatory achievement, based on a wealth of letters and papers never before available, and written by one of our most renowned art critics. Alexander Calder is one of the most beloved and widely admired artists of the twentieth century. Anybody who has ever set foot in a museum knows him as the inventor of the mobile, America's unique contribution to modern art. But only now, forty years after the artist's death, is the full story of his life being told in this biography, which is based on unprecedented access to Calder's letters and papers as well as scores of interviews. Jed Perl shows us why Calder was--and remains--a barrier breaker, an avant-garde artist with mass appeal. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/damion-searls-the-inkblots-hermann-rorschach-his-iconic-test-and-the-power-of-seeing monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/d781d083-5137-44c2-a20f-3921c6fc4f1f/The+Inkblots-+Hermann+Rorschach%2C+His+Iconic+Test%2C+and+the+Power+of+Seeing.jpg Biographies - Damion Searls; The Inkblots: Hermann Rorschach, His Iconic Test, and the Power of Seeing - Damion Searls is a 2012 – 2013 Fellow In 1917, working alone in a remote Swiss asylum, psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach devised an experiment to probe the human mind: a set of ten carefully designed inkblots. For years he had grappled with the theories of Freud and Jung while also absorbing the aesthetic movements of the day, from Futurism to Dadaism. A visual artist himself, Rorschach had come to believe that who we are is less a matter of what we say, as Freud thought, than what we see. After Rorschach’s early death, his test quickly made its way to America, where it took on a life of its own. Co-opted by the military after Pearl Harbor, it was a fixture at the Nuremberg trials and in the jungles of Vietnam. It became an advertising staple, a cliché in Hollywood and journalism, and an inspiration to everyone from Andy Warhol to Jay Z. The test was also given to millions of defendants, job applicants, parents in custody battles, and people suffering from mental illness or simply trying to understand themselves better. And it is still used today. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/alexandra-chasin-assassin-of-youth-the-kaleidoscopic-history-of-harry-j-anslingers-war-on-drugs monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/54cce887-9761-4be2-852b-a4116e599cff/Assassin+of+Youth-+the+Kaleidoscopic+History+of+Harry+J.+Anslinger%27s+War+on+Drugs.jpg Biographies - Alexandra Chasin; Assassin of Youth: the Kaleidoscopic History of Harry J.

Anslinger is the United States’ little known first drug czar. Anslinger was a profligate propagandist with a flair for demonizing racial and immigrant groups and perhaps best known for his zealous pursuit of harsh drug penalties and his particular animus for marijuana users. But what made Anslinger who he was, and what cultural trends did he amplify and institutionalize? Having just passed the hundredth anniversary of the Harrison Act—which consolidated prohibitionist drug policy and led to the carceral state we have today—and even as public doubts about the drug war continue to grow, now is the perfect time to evaluate Anslinger’s social, cultural, and political legacy. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/ruth-franklin-shirley-jackson-a-rather-haunted-life monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/38e8616b-41d3-41ab-bc91-0e0dbd3c7cc3/Shirley+Jackson-+A+Rather+Haunted+Life.jpg Biographies - Ruth Franklin; Shirley Jackson: a Rather Haunted Life - Ruth Franklin is a 2014 – 2015 Fellow Instantly heralded for its “masterful” and “thrilling” portrayal (Boston Globe), Shirley Jackson reveals the tumultuous life and inner darkness of the literary genius behind such classics as “The Lottery” and The Haunting of Hill House. In this “remarkable act of reclamation” (Neil Gaiman), Ruth Franklin envisions Jackson as “belonging to the great tradition of Hawthorne, Poe and James” (New York Times Book Review) and demonstrates how her unique contribution to the canon “so uncannily channeled women’s nightmares and contradictions that it is ‘nothing less than the secret history of American women of her era’ ” (Washington Post). Franklin investigates the “interplay between the life, the work, and the times with real skill and insight, making this fine book a real contribution not only to biography, but to mid-20th-century women’s history” (Chicago Tribune). “Wisely rescu[ing] Shirley Jackson from any semblance of obscurity” (Lena Dunham), Franklin’s invigorating portrait stands as the definitive biography of a generational avatar and an American literary genius.

In 1904, Ota Benga, a young Congolese “pygmy”—a person of petite stature—arrived from central Africa and was featured in an anthropology exhibit at the St. Louis World’s Fair. Two years later, the New York Zoological Gardens displayed him in its Monkey House, caging the slight 103-pound, 4-foot 11-inch tall man with an orangutan.

Merrill was born to high privilege and high expectations as the son of Charles Merrill, the charismatic cofounder of the brokerage firm Merrill Lynch, and Hellen Ingram, a muse, ally, and antagonist throughout her son’s life. Wounded by his parents’ bitter divorce, he was the child of a broken home, looking for repair in poetry and love. This is the story of a young man escaping, yet also reenacting, the energies and obsessions of those powerful parents. It is the story of a gay man inventing his identity against the grain of American society during the eras of the closet, gay liberation, and AIDS. Above all, it is the story of a brilliantly gifted, fiercely dedicated poet working every day to turn his life into art. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/adam-begley-updike monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/a8a062ed-40a6-440d-be7d-4e2742018617/Adam-Begley_Updike.jpg Biographies - Adam Begley; Updike - Adam Begley is a 2011 – 2012 Fellow A masterful, much-anticipated biography of one of the most celebrated figures in American literature: Pulitzer Prize-winning author John Updike - a candid, intimate, and richly detailed look at his life and work.

Tracing the lives and friendship of these two dancers from years just before the 1917 Russian Revolution to Balanchine's escape from Russia in 1924, Elizabeth Kendall's Balanchine & the Lost Muse sheds new light on a crucial flash point in the history of ballet. Drawing upon extensive archival research, Kendall weaves a fascinating tale about this decisive period in the life of the man who would become the most influential choreographer in modern ballet. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/molly-peacock-the-paper-garden-an-artist-begins-her-work-at-72-biography-of-mary-granville-delany-1700-1788 monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/bdcefe02-e861-4075-a823-78187f2c4b4a/The-Paper-Garden--an-Artist-Begins-her-Work-at-72.jpg Biographies - Molly Peacock; The Paper Garden: an Artist Begins her Work at 72 [biography of Mary Granville Delany (1700 – 1788) - Molly Peacock is a 2008 – 2009 Fellow The Paper Garden is unlike anything else you have ever read. At once a biography of an extraordinary 18th century gentlewoman and a meditation on late-life creativity, it is a beautifully written tour de force from an acclaimed poet. Mary Granville Pendarves Delany (1700-1788) was the witty, beautiful and talented daughter of a minor branch of a powerful family. Married off at 16 to a 61-year-old drunken squire to improve the family fortunes, she was widowed by 25, and henceforth had a small stipend and a horror of a marriage. She spurned many suitors over the next twenty years, including the powerful Lord Baltimore and the charismatic radical John Wesley. She cultivated a wide circle of friends, including Handel and Jonathan Swift. And she painted, she stitched, she observed, as she swirled in the outskirts of the Georgian court. In mid-life she found love, and married. Upon her husband's death 23 years later, she arose from her grief, picked up a pair of scissors and, at the age of 72, created a new art form, mixed-media collage. Over the next decade, Mrs Delany created an astonishing 985 botanically correct, breathtaking cut-paper flowers, now housed in the British Museum and referred to as the Botanica Delanica. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/wendy-lesser-music-for-silenced-voices-dimitri-shostakovich monthly 0.5 2025-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/1757363113322-JKI78S5SIJKKVN41D67Z/Music-for-Silenced-Voices-Dimitri-Shostakovich.jpg Biographies - Wendy Lesser; Music for Silenced Voices: Dmitri Shostakovich - Wendy Lesser is a 2009 – 2010 Fellow Most previous books about Dmitri Shostakovich have focused on either his symphonies and operas, or his relationship to the regime under which he lived, or both, since these large-scale works were the ones that attracted the interest and sometimes the condemnation of the Soviet authorities. Music for Silenced Voices looks at Shostakovich through the back door, as it were, of his fifteen quartets, the works which his widow characterized as a "diary, the story of his soul." The silences and the voices were of many kinds, including the political silencing of adventurous writers, artists, and musicians during the Stalin era; the lost voices of Shostakovich's operas (a form he abandoned just before turning to string quartets); and the death-silenced voices of his close friends, to whom he dedicated many of these chamber works. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/john-matteson-the-lives-of-margaret-fuller monthly 0.5 2025-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/687676d602fa932c343c3190/26279eba-99df-4a8d-a1b3-a214497e5633/The-Lives-of-Margaret-Fuller.jpg Biographies - John Matteson; The Lives of Margaret Fuller - John Matteson is a 2009 – 2010 Fellow A brilliant writer and a fiery social critic, Margaret Fuller (1810-1850) was perhaps the most famous American woman of her generation. Outspoken and quick-witted, idealistic and adventurous, she became the leading female figure in the transcendentalist movement, wrote a celebrated column of literary and social commentary for Horace Greeley's newspaper, and served as the first foreign correspondent for an American newspaper. While living in Europe she fell in love with an Italian nobleman, with whom she became pregnant out of wedlock. In 1848 she joined the fight for Italian independence and, the following year, reported on the struggle while nursing the wounded within range of enemy cannons. Amid all these strivings and achievements, she authored the first great work of American feminism: Woman in the Nineteenth Century. Despite her brilliance, however, Fuller suffered from self-doubt and was plagued by ill health. John Matteson captures Fuller's longing to become ever better, reflected by the changing lives she led. https://www.leonlevycenterforbiography.com/biographies/category/Published+biography monthly 0.5
