Author
Owen Wister
Owen Wister (1860–1938) was a classmate of Theodore Roosevelt’s at Harvard University and an editor of the Harvard Lampoon. He frequently traveled in the American West, and the region inspired much of his fiction, including the groundbreaking novel The Virginian: A Horseman of the Plains, considered by many to be the first true Western.
