Granted Application for Laurette MacDuffie Knight
-
Description
-
A 1944 application file for Laurette MacDuffie Knight, a free-lance writer. She was granted $1,500 to write a novel set in an old North Carolina town, studying an incipient paranoid character, product of an environment of poverty and insecurity. Handwritten evaluations describe her as a talented writer, but questions if her fund request is justified based on her age.
