F. Scott Fitzgerald

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 –

December 21, 1940) was an American author of

novels and short stories, whose works are the

paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined

himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest

American writers of the 20th century.[1] Fitzgerald is

considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the

1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise ,

The Beautiful and Damned , Tender is the Night and

his most famous, The Great Gatsby . A fifth,

unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon , was

published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many

short stories that treat themes of youth and promise

along with despair and age.

Novels such as The Great Gatsby and Tender is the

Night were made into films, and in 1958 his life from

1937–1940 was dramatized in Beloved Infidel .Contents

Life and career

Born in 1896 in Saint Paul, Minnesota to an upper middle class Irish Catholic family, Fitzgerald was named after his famous second cousin, three times removed, Francis Scott Key,[2] but was referred to as "Scott." He was also named after his deceased sister, Louise Scott,[3] one of two sisters who died shortly before his birth. "Well, three months before I was born," he wrote as an adult, "my mother lost her other two children....I think I started then to be a writer."[4]. His parents were Mollie (McQuillan) and Edward Fitzgerald.[5]

Scott spent the first decade of his childhood primarily in Buffalo, New York (1898–1901 and 1903–1908, with a short interlude in Syracuse, New York between January 1901 and September 1903).[6] His parents, both practicing Catholics, sent Scott to two Catholic schools on the West Side of Buffalo, first Holy Angels Convent (1903–1904, now disused) and then Nardin Academy (1905–1908). His formative years in Buffalo revealed him to be a boy of unusual intelligence and drive with a keen early interest in literature, his doting mother ensuring that her son had all the advantages of an upper-middle-class upbringing.[7] In a rather unconventional style of parenting, Scott attended Holy Angels with the peculiar arrangement that he go for only half a day—and was allowed to choose which half.[6]

When Scott was ten years old, his father was fired from Procter & Gamble, and the family returned to Minnesota, where Fitzgerald attended St. Paul Academy in St. Paul from 1908–1911. His first literary effort, a detective story, was published in a school newspaper when he was 13. When he was 16, he was expelled from St. Paul Academy for neglecting his studies. He attended Newman School, a prep school in Hackensack, New Jersey, in 1911–1912, and entered Princeton University in 1913 as a member of the Class of 1917. There he became friends with future critics and writers Edmund Wilson (Class of 1916) and John Peale Bishop (Class of 1917), and wrote for the Princeton Triangle Club and the Princeton Tiger. His absorption in the Triangle—a kind of musical-comedy society—led to his submission of a novel to Charles Scribner's Sons where the editor praised the writing but ultimately rejected the book. He was a member of the University Cottage Club, which still displays Fitzgerald's desk and writing materials in its library. A poor student, Fitzgerald left Princeton to enlist in the US Army during World War I; however, the war ended shortly after Fitzgerald's enlistment.[8]

Zelda Fitzgerald

Main article: Zelda Fitzgerald

While at a country club, Fitzgerald met Zelda Sayre (1900–1948), the "golden girl," in Fitzgerald's terms, of Montgomery, Alabama youth society. Fitzgerald attempted to lay a foundation for his life with Zelda. Despite working at an advertising firm and writing short stories, he was unable to convince Zelda that he would be able to support her, leading her to break off the engagement. Scott returned to his parents' house at 599 Summit Avenue, on Cathedral Hill, in St. Paul, to revise The Romantic Egoist. Recast as This Side of Paradise, about the post-WWI flapper generation, it was accepted by Scribner's in the fall of 1919, and Zelda and Scott resumed their engagement. The novel was published on March 26, 1920, and became one of the most popular books of the year. Scott and Zelda were married in New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral. Their only child, Frances Scott "Scottie" Fitzgerald, was born on October 26, 1921 and died on June 16, 1986.

"The Jazz Age"

F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1921

Fitzgerald wrote frequently for The Saturday Evening Post . This issue from May 1, 1920, containing the short story "Bernice Bobs Her Hair", was the first with Fitzgerald's name on the cover.The 1920s proved the most influential decade of Fitzgerald's

development. The Great Gatsby , considered his masterpiece, was

published in 1925. Fitzgerald made several excursions to Europe,

mostly Paris and the French Riviera, and became friends with

many members of the American expatriate community in Paris,

notably Ernest Hemingway. Fitzgerald ’s friendship with

Hemingway was quite vigorous, as many of Fitzgerald ’s

relationships would prove to be. Hemingway did not get on well with Zelda. In addition to describing her as "insane" he claimed

that she “encouraged her husband to drink so as to distract Scott

from his work on his novel,"[9][10] the other work being the short

stories he sold to magazines. As did most professional authors at

the time, Fitzgerald supplemented his income by writing short

stories for such magazines as The Saturday Evening Post ,

Collier's Weekly , and Esquire , and sold his stories and novels to

Hollywood studios. This “whoring ”, as Fitzgerald and, subsequently, Hemingway called these sales, was a sore point in

the authors ’ friendship. Fitzgerald claimed that he would first

write his stories in an authentic manner but then put in “twists that made them into saleable magazine stories.”[10]

Although Fitzgerald's passion lay in writing novels, only his first

novel sold well enough to support the opulent lifestyle that he

and Zelda adopted as New York celebrities. Because of this

lifestyle, as well as the bills from Zelda's medical care when they

came, Fitzgerald was constantly in financial trouble and often

required loans from his literary agent, Harold Ober, and his

editor at Scribner's, Maxwell Perkins. When Ober decided not to

continue advancing money to Fitzgerald, the author severed ties

with his longtime friend and agent. (Fitzgerald offered a good-

hearted and apologetic tribute to this support in the late short

story "Financing Finnegan".)Fitzgerald began working on his fourth novel during the late

1920s but was sidetracked by financial difficulties that

necessitated his writing commercial short stories, and by the

schizophrenia that struck Zelda in 1930. Her emotional health

remained fragile for the rest of her life. In 1932, she was

hospitalized in Baltimore, Maryland. Scott rented the "La Paix" estate in the suburb of Towson, Maryland to work on his latest book, the story of the rise and fall of Dick Diver, a promising young psychiatrist who falls in love with and marries Nicole Warren, one of his patients. The book went through many

versions, the first of which was to be a story of matricide. Some

critics have seen the book as a thinly-veiled autobiographical novel recounting Fitzgerald's problems with his wife, the

corrosive effects of wealth and a decadent lifestyle, his own

egoism and self-confidence, and his continuing alcoholism. Indeed, Fitzgerald was extremely protective of his "material" (their life together). When Zelda wrote and sent to Scribner's her own fictional version of their lives in Europe, Save Me the Waltz , Fitzgerald was angry and was able to make some changes prior to the novel's publication, and convince her doctors to keep her from writing any more about what

he called his "material," which included their relationship. His book was finally published in 1934 as Tender Is the Night. Critics who had waited nine years for the followup to The Great Gatsby had mixed opinions about the novel. Most were thrown off by its three-part structure and many felt that Fitzgerald had not lived up to their expectations.[11] The novel did not sell well upon publication, but like the earlier Gatsby, the book's reputation has since risen significantly.[12]

Hollywood years

Although he reportedly found movie work degrading, Fitzgerald was once again in dire financial straits, and spent the second half of the 1930s in Hollywood, working on commercial short stories, scripts for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (including some unfilmed work on Gone with the Wind), and his fifth and final novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon. Published posthumously as The Last Tycoon, it was based on the life of film executive Irving Thalberg. Scott and Zelda became estranged; she continued living in mental institutions on the East Coast, while he lived with his lover Sheilah Graham, the gossip columnist, in Hollywood. In addition, records from the 1940 U.S.Census reflect that he was officially living at the estate of Edward Everett Horton in Encino, California San Fernando Valley. From 1939 until his death in 1940, Fitzgerald mocked himself as a Hollywood hack through the character of Pat Hobby in a sequence of 17 short stories, later collected as "The Pat Hobby Stories" which garnered many positive reviews.

Illness and death

Fitzgerald had been an alcoholic since his college days, and became notorious during the 1920s for his extraordinarily heavy drinking, leaving him in poor health by the late 1930s. According to Zelda's biographer, Nancy Milford, Scott claimed that he had contracted tuberculosis, but Milford dismisses it as a pretext to cover his drinking problems. However, Fitzgerald scholar Matthew J. Bruccoli contends that Fitzgerald did in fact have recurring tuberculosis, and Nancy Milford reports that Fitzgerald biographer Arthur Mizener said that Scott suffered a mild attack of tuberculosis in 1919, and in 1929 he had "what proved to be a tubercular hemorrhage". It has been said that the hemorrhage was caused by bleeding from esophageal varices.

Fitzgerald suffered two heart attacks in late 1940. After the first, in Schwab's Drug Store, he was ordered by his doctor to avoid strenuous exertion. He moved in with Sheilah Graham, who lived in Hollywood on North Hayworth Ave., one block east of Fitzgerald's apartment on North Laurel Ave. Fitzgerald had two flights of stairs to climb to his apartment; Graham's was on the ground floor. On the night of December 20, 1940, Fitzgerald and Sheilah Graham attended the premiere of This Thing Called Love starring Melvyn Douglas and Rosalind Russell. As the two were leaving the Pantages Theater, Fitzgerald experienced a dizzy spell and had trouble leaving the theater; upset, he said to Ms. Graham, "They think I am drunk, don't they?"

The following day, as Fitzgerald ate a candy bar and made notes in his newly arrived Princeton Alumni Weekly, Ms. Graham saw him jump from his armchair, grab the mantelpiece, gasp, and fall to the floor. She ran to the manager of the building, Harry Culver, founder of Culver City. Upon entering the apartment and assisting Fitzgerald, he stated, "I'm afraid he's dead." Fitzgerald had died of a massive heart attack. His body was moved to the Pierce Brothers Mortuary.

Among the attendants at a visitation held at a funeral home was Dorothy Parker, who reportedly cried and murmured "the poor son-of-a-bitch," a line from Jay Gatsby's funeral in Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby.[13][14][15] His body was shipped to Baltimore, Maryland, where his funeral was attended by twenty or thirty people in Bethesda; among the attendants were his only child, Frances "Scottie"

Zelda and Scott's grave in Rockville, Maryland, inscribed with the final sentence of The Great Gatsby

Fitzgerald Lanahan Smith (then age 19), and his

editor, Maxwell Perkins. Fitzgerald was originally

buried in Rockville Union Cemetery. Zelda died in

1948, in a fire at the Highland Mental Hospital in

Asheville, North Carolina. Frances "Scottie"

Fitzgerald Lanahan Smith worked to overturn the

Archdiocese of Baltimore's ruling that Fitzgerald

died a non-practicing Catholic, so that he could be

buried at the Roman Catholic Saint Mary's Cemetery

where his father's family was interred. Both Scott's

and Zelda's remains were moved to the family plot

in Saint Mary's Cemetery, in Rockville, Maryland,

in 1975.

Fitzgerald died before he could complete The Love

of the Last Tycoon . His manuscript, which included

extensive notes for the unwritten part of the novel's

story, was edited by his friend, the literary critic

Edmund Wilson, and published in 1941 as The Last

Tycoon . In 1994 the book was reissued under the

original title The Love of the Last Tycoon , which is

now agreed to have been Fitzgerald's preferred title.[16]Legacy

Fitzgerald's work has inspired writers ever since he was first published. The publication of The Great Gatsby prompted T. S. Eliot to write, in a letter to Fitzgerald, "[I]t seems to me to be the first step that American fiction has taken since Henry James...".[17] Don Birnam, the protagonist of Charles Jackson's The Lost Weekend , says to himself, referring to The Great Gatsby , "There's no such thing...as a flawless novel. But if there is, this is it."[18] In letters written in the 1940s, J. D. Salinger expressed admiration of Fitzgerald's work, and his biographer Ian Hamilton wrote that Salinger even saw himself for some time as "Fitzgerald's successor."[19] Richard Yates, a writer often compared to Fitzgerald, called The Great Gatsby "the most nourishing novel [he] read...a miracle of talent...a triumph of technique."[20] It was written in a New York Times editorial after his death that Fitzgerald "was better than he knew, for in fact and in the literary sense he invented a generation.... He might have interpreted them and even guided them, as in their middle years they saw a different and nobler freedom threatened with destruction."Into the 21st century, millions of copies of The Great Gatsby and his other works have been sold, and Gatsby, a constant best-seller, is required reading in many high school and college classes.[21]Fitzgerald is a 2009 inductee of the New Jersey Hall of Fame.[22] He is also the namesake of the

Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul, Minnesota, home of the radio broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion.Fitzgerald was the first cousin once removed of Mary Surratt, hanged in 1865 for conspiring to assassinate Abraham Lincoln.[23]

Portrayals

The fourth adaptation of The Great Gatsby to the screen will be released in 2012, directed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby, Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan, and Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway. The film will be done in 3D.

A musical about the lives of Fitzgerald and wife Zelda Fitzgerald was composed by Frank Wildhorn entitled Waiting for the Moon, formerly known as Zelda, followed by Scott & Zelda: The Other Side Of Paradise. The musical shows their lives from when they first met, through Fitzgerald's career, their lives together (the good and bad), to both of their deaths. The musical made its world premiere at the Lenape Regional Performing Arts Center in a production that ran from July 20, 2005 through July 31, 2005. It starred Broadway veteran actors Jarrod Emick as Fitzgerald and Lauren Kennedy as Zelda.

The Japanese Takarazuka Revue has also created a musical adaptation of Fitzgerald's life. Entitled The Last Party: S. Fitzgerald's Last Day, it was produced in 2004 and 2006. Yuhi Oozora and Yūga Yamato starred as Fitzgerald, while Zelda was played by Kanami Ayano and Rui Shijou.

Fitzgerald was portrayed by the actor Malcolm Gets in the 1994 film Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle.[24] Others include the TV movies Zelda (1993, with Timothy Hutton), F. Scott Fitzgerald in Hollywood (1976, with Jason Miller), and F. Scott Fitzgerald and 'The Last of the Belles' (1974, with Richard Chamberlain).

A film based on Fitzgerald and Zelda's relationship called "The Beautiful and the Damned" (not an adaptation of the novel of the same name) was announced for a 2011 release by director John Curran. The last years of Fitzgerald and his affair with Sheilah Graham, the Hollywood gossip columnist, was the theme of the movie Beloved Infidel (1959). The film depicts Fitzgerald (played by Gregory Peck) during his final years as a Hollywood scenarist and his relationship with Ms. Graham (played by Deborah Kerr), with whom he had a years-long affair, while his wife, Zelda, was institutionalized. Another film, Last Call (2002) (Jeremy Irons plays Fitzgerald) describes the relationship with Frances Kroll (Neve Campbell) during his last two years of life. The film was based on the memoir of Frances Kroll Ring, titled Against the Current: As I Remember F. Scott Fitzgerald (1985), that records her experience as secretary to Fitzgerald for the last 20 months of his life.

The standard biographies of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald are Arthur Mizener's The Far Side of Paradise (1951, 1965) and Matthew Bruccoli's Some Sort of Epic Grandeur (1981). Fitzgerald's letters have also been published in various editions such as Dear Scott, Dearest Zelda: The Love Letters of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, ed. Jackson R. Bryer and Cathy W. Banks (2002); Correspondence of F. Scott Fitzgerald, ed. Matthew Bruccoli and Margaret Duggan (1980), and F. Scott Fitzgerald: A Life in Letters, ed. Matthew Bruccoli (1994). A collection of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald's scrapbooks of photographs and reviews was compiled by Bruccoli and F. Scott and Zelda's daughter Frances "Scottie" Fitzgerald (Appearing as Scottie Fitzgerald Smith) in a book The Romantic Egoists (1976).

Zelda Fitzgerald published an autobiographically-charged novel, Save Me the Waltz, in 1934. Fitzgerald appears alongside Pablo Picasso and Ernest Hemingway in the play Villa America by British playwright Crispin Whittell which premiered at Williamstown Theatre Festival (2007).

Tom Hiddleston and Alison Pill appear briefly as Fitzgerald and Zelda in Woody Allen's 2011 feature film Midnight In Paris.

Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald appear alongside Ernest Hemingway, Hadley Hemingway, Gertrude Stein and Ezra Pound in the novel 'The Paris Wife' by Paula McLain

(/rhpg/features/paula_mclain/) . The novel was adapted by Sheila Yeger for a 2011 BBC Radio 4 Women's Hour Drama. This radio adaptation of 'The Paris

Wife' (/programmes/b00zdbj5) featured the actor Gerard Cooke

() as F. Scott Fitzgerald.
