Lewis Grizzard

    Lewis Grizzard fue un escritor y humorista estadounidense celebrado por su porte sureño y sus agudos comentarios sobre el Sur de Estados Unidos. Aunque comenzó su carrera en el periodismo deportivo, obtuvo un amplio reconocimiento por sus humorísticas columnas de periódico que a menudo profundizaban en relaciones, política y salud. Su obra, frecuentemente comparada con Mark Twain 'para la gente común', combinó magistralmente la risa con la observación reflexiva. Grizzard fue un narrador cautivador cuya escritura exploró la vida estadounidense con un distintivo encanto sureño.
