Despite his upbringing among Hollywood's elite in the 1920s and '30s, Budd Schulberg remained a populist at heart. This collection of his finest short stories transports readers from Los Angeles' privileged halls to New York's smoky dives and dockyard slums. Schulberg's keen eye and nose for drama bring characters to life as vividly as a Weegee photograph. These tales also capture mid-century America's people and ideas in conflict. Included is 'The Arkansas Traveler', the story Schulberg adapted into the influential film 'A Face in the Crowd', starring Andy Griffith.
