About F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) was born into a well-to-do Catholic family living in St Paul Minnesota. At Princeton University he decided to become a writer leaving without graduating in 1917 to join the army when America entered the First World War. Believing he would be killed at the front he hurriedly wrote the novel that would become This Side of Paradise but in the end was not sent to Europe. The novel was published in 1920 to great critical acclaim. He married Zelda Sayre a week after the publication and they embarked on an extravagant lifestyle in New York. Their marriage was blighted by alcoholism mental illness and financial strife and provided much material for Scott's numerous short stories and subsequent novels - The Beautiful and Damned (1922) The Great Gatsby (1925) and Tender is the Night (1934). Fitzgerald died aged forty-four and is regarded as one of America's greatest and most influential writers.
