My cousin needs your help for her English 1A class.

A research paper (6-10 pages) about somebody who is: an author, a poet or screen writer.
There are serverals options such as Shakespeare, Hemingway, etc. (the classic ones)
But she'd love to write about someone new, or little known but his/her life is interesting (scandal or controversial is fine)

May someone have any good idea?
Your suggestion is greatly appreciated!
 
hmm, ralph waldo ellison (sic, not the poet) is a pretty good topic. just did a 4 pager on the analysis of the invisible man. there was a radio story about him that you can listen to that was on NPR this week, just run a search on ralph ellison and open up realplayer
 
Salman Rushdie (talk about scandal...)
Chuck Jones (he died today 🙁 He wasn't an author per se, but did some very interesting artistic work)
