About John Steinbeck

SteinbeckHere you will find articles that address key elements intersecting Steinbeck’s life and work: his friendship with biologist Ed Ricketts; reflections on what his novels offer to readers, philosophically and ecologically; background on The Grapes of Wrath; thoughts on Steinbeck’s vision of nature and humanity as revealed in Cannery Row; insight into how Steinbeck’s experiences inspired elements of The Red Pony; and background on his controversial, censored 1941 film The Forgotten Village. The National Steinbeck Center in Salinas and the San Jose State University Steinbeck Center offer additional background information on John Steinbeck to the public.
