About me:
"Born on February 3, 1926 in Yonkers, New York, Yates lived by his pen throughout his life, working as a journalist, freelance ghost writer (briefly also for Senator Robert Kennedy) and publicity writer, eventually starting his career as a novelist in 1961 with the publication of Revolutionary Road. His short stories are considered among the finest of the 20th Century. Despite this, only one of his short stories appeared in the The New Yorker. This story, "The Canal," was published in the magazine nine years after the author's death to celebrate the 2001 release of The Collected Stories of Richard Yates.
Twice divorced and the father of three daughters, Yates died of emphysema in Birmingham, Alabama. It has been generally assumed that his heavy drinking and smoking of four packs a day contributed decisively to his premature death at age 66."

Note: This site was not created by Richard Yates; sadly, he's no longer with us. This is a fan site for readers of Richard Yates. I'm guessing he would never use MySpace, but the kids do. And the kids need Yates more than he needs them. At this point, I guess.
