Biography

Salter is regarded as one of the finest "writers' writers" in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century. Born in 1925 in Passaic, New Jersey, he had his work published in _Poetry_ magazine while still in high school. His father, a former West Point graduate, persuaded him to attend the military academy, from which he graduated in 1945. His experiences as an Air Force fighter pilot are detailed in his memoir, _Burning the Days_. He began writing while stationed in Honolulu, though his first novel was not published until 1956, shortly before he left the Air Force. Salter has contributed sporadically to film projects.
