Born in 1926, Harper Lee grew up in the Southern town of Monroeville, Alabama, where she became close friends with the writer Truman Capote. To Kill a Mockingbird <\/em>is loosely based on Harper Lee’s observations of her family and neighbors, as well as on an event that occurred near her hometown in 1936, when she was only 10 years old. \"\"<\/a>The Novel was immediately successful upon publication, winning the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1961. The New Yorker<\/em> declared it “skilled, unpretentious, and totally ingenious.” It has gone on to become one of the best-loved classics of all time, and has been translated into more than forty languages, selling more than forty million copies worldwide. To date, it is Lee’s only published novel, and since its publication, she has granted almost no requests for interviews or public appearances. In a rare 2011 interview she was asked why she never wrote again… she was quoted as saying “I have said what I wanted to say and I will not say it again”.<\/p>\n
