Notes. Index. Signed by the author on the half-title page. The dust jacket has an autographed copy sticker on the front. The dust jacket is price clipped. Will Rogers was a true American icon. His newspaper column was read daily by 40 million people and as radio entertainer lecturer movies star and homespun sage he was one of our most popular entertainers. Drawing on previously unavailable letters this biography brings out Rogers' hidden depths showing his humor and political savvy as well as his insecurity and moments of despair. Ben Yagoda is Associate Professor of English and Journalism at the University of Delaware. He is the coeditor of The Art of Fact: A Historical Anthology of Literary Journalism and is the author of a forthcoming history of The New Yorker. Ben Yagoda born February 22 1954 is an American writer and educator. He is a professor of journalism and English at the University of Delaware. He grew up in New Rochelle New York. He entered Yale University to study English in 1971 and graduated in 1976 with a bachelor of arts. He later earned an M.A. in American civilization at the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. He became a freelance journalist for publications such as The New Leader The New York Times Newsweek and Rolling Stone. He has published a number of books including Will Rogers About Town: The New Yorker and the World it Made. Besides his work as a journalism and English professor at the University of Delaware Yagoda also writes occasionally for a New York Times blog about the English language. Derived from a Kirkus review: Clear as a Walker Evans photo: a biography of folk-humorist Will Rogers 1879-1935 who like Cary Grant and Humphrey Bogart grew into his mask becoming the image of wry genial common sense until his death. Yagoda offers an utterly thorough brilliant taking-apart of the unique Rogers persona. Ronald Reagan he tells us gave `an impressive Rogers impersonation in the White House' and back in the 40's was thought to be a natural to play Rogers in the film bio—but Will Rogers Jr. got the role. `For there to be another Will Rogers today' Rogers says `he or she would have to combine.Johnny Carson Mark Russell Roy Rogers Clark Clifford Walter Cronkite Bill Cosby Bob Hope Russell Baker H. Ross Perot and Walter Lippmann. It just can't happen.' Yagoda finds Rogers to have been a divided being a rather gleeful but sometimes despairing and angry youth who clammed up after marriage and became the model of `unmatched stability drive and contentment.' One-quarter Cherokee he rode the plains as a young cowboy then took his mastery of the lariat and patter to the vaudeville stage emerging as the Lincolnesque figure who `never met a man I didn't like.' Rogers went on to a rather bumpkin-ish career in silent movies; graduated to a kind of sheepishly patriarchal status in talkies; made records; then became a radio humorist syndicated newspaper columnist and crony of politicians while grabbing the ear of FDR and topping out as Hollywood's number-one star: An amazing unforeseeable life. As a speaker about politics he kept his knife sheathed talking as if from the very pulse of the people during the Depression and was finally seen by all as the apostle of decency and archetype of American wisdom. His interest in aviation led to his death in Alaska—and to the grief of a nation. So immediate you can scratch a match on his boot sole. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover
