Carson McCullers was born in 1917 in Columbus, Georgia. As a girl and young woman, she studied the piano in preparation for a career in music, which failed to materialize but which provided the leitmotif for much of her fiction. Before she was thirty, McCullers had published The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, Reflections in a Golden Eye, The Member of the Wedding (novel and play), and The Ballad of the Sad Café. She would later publish Clock Without Hands, but by her forties she had become severely disabled by the strokes and heart attacks that eventually claimed her life. She died and was buried in 1967 in Nyack, New York.
