Synopsis
John Howard Griffin (1920-1980) is known internationally as the author of two novels, Nuni and The Devil Rides Outside , five books and monographs on racism in addition to Black Like Me , a biography of Thomas Merton , three collections of photography, a volume of journals, two historical works on Texas, a musicological study, and The John Howard Reader . Born in Dallas, Texas, and educated in France, he served in the U.S. Air Force in the South Pacific, where an injury he received during a Japanese bombardment eventually resulted in the complete loss of his sight.
