Donald Pizer
Donald Pizer (April 5, 1929 – November 7, 2023) was an American academic and literary critic who was regarded as one of the principal authorities on the American naturalism literary movement. He was the Pierce Butler Professor of English Emeritus at Tulane University, and the author of numerous books on naturalism. He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1962.For University of Georgia professor James Nagel, Pizer "has made enormous contributions to the study of naturalism in the period from 1890 through World War II, with a score or more of books on Jack London, Hamlin Garland, Theodore Dreiser, Frank Norris, John Dos Passos, the 1890s, and twentieth-century fiction."
In 1971 he presented the paper, "Dreiser 's Fiction: The Editorial Problem" for the A.S.W. Rosenbach Lectures in Bibliography to mark the Theodore Dreiser Centenary.
After retiring from teaching in 2001, Pizer carried on with his research and writing up until a few years before his death on November 7, 2023, at the age of 94. Provided by Wikipedia
