About James Oliver Curwood

James Oliver Curwood (1878-1927) was an American writer and conservationist popular in the action-adventure genre. Curwood began his career as a journalist and was hired by the Canadian government to travel around Northern Canada and publish travel journals in order to encourage tourism. This served as a catalyst for his works of fiction which were often set in Alaska or the Hudson Bay area in Canada. Curwood was among the top ten best-selling authors in the United States during the early and mid 1920s. Over one-hundred and eighty films have been inspired by or based on his work. With these deals paired with his record book sales Curwood earned an impressive amount of wealth from his work. As he grew older Curwood became an advocate for conservationism and environmentalism giving up his hunting hobby and serving on conservation committees. Between his activism and his literary work Curwood helped shape the popular perception of the natural world.
