The life of Clarence Day, beloved author of Life With Father , Life With Mother , God and My Father , and This Simian World , is revealed for the first time in Clarence Day: An American Writer . Using her father's diaries and family letters, Day's daughter, Wilhelmine Day Blower, creates a lively portrait of her father's Victorian boyhood, escapades at Yale, and naval experiences in the Spanish-American War-until he was struck down with rheumatoid arthritis. Forced to abandon an active life on Wall Street at the age of twenty-five, Day struggled to make a career as a writer and illustrator. His life with his hot-tempered father, energetic mother, and three redheaded brothers is the background to his best-known book, Life With Father , which was later produced as a play and a Hollywood film. Blower also shares with the reader other aspects of her father's life, including his unusual marriage and his contribution to the success of a new magazine called The New Yorker . Clarence Day: An American Writer brilliantly captures the dedication of one of America's favorite authors.
