RICHARD FORD (pictured below from our Wall of Fame) is the first writer to win the Pulitzer Prize and PEN/Faulkner in the same year. He was also a finalist for another Pulitzer and has a wagon full of awards for his craft. He was a student of E.L. Doctorow and returned the favor with teaching stints at prestigious universities around the United States and abroad. The Paris Review called him a master of the short story and critics worldwide consider him a literary giant. Thank you Richard Ford for signing our books.
