Уильям Сидни Портер (О.Генри) (William Porter (О. Henry))
Из банковской карьеры хорошего вышло мало. Портера вскоре обвинили в растрате 1150 долларов – очень серьёзной суммы по тому времени. Биографы писателя до сих пор спорят, был ли он на самом деле виновен. С одной стороны, он нуждался в деньгах для лечения больной жены (и для издания "Rolling Stone"). С другой стороны, кассир Портер уволился из банка в декабре 1894 г., в то время как растрата вскрылась только в 1895-м, причём владельцы банка были явно нечисты на руку. [rus] |

His only formal education was received at the school of his Aunt Lina, where he developed a lifelong love of books. In his uncle's pharmacy, he became a licensed pharmacist and was also known for his sketches and cartoons of the townspeople of Greensboro. [eng] |

O.Henry
Prolific American short-story writer, a master of surprise endings, who wrote about the life of ordinary people in New York City. Typical for O. Henry's stories is a twist of plot which turns on an ironic or coincidental circumstance. Although some critics were not so enthusiastic about his work, the public loved it. [eng] |
