Summary:"Knoxville-born James Agee was a prolific writer, film critic, and journalist whose output garnered him a Pulitzer Prize (granted posthumously for A Death in the Family) and whose journalistic opus Let Us Now Praise Famous Men is regarded as a canonical text for both journalists and literary scholars. While Agee published one volume of poetry in 1934, no definitive collection of it has been attempted until now.
