Autorenporträt
Ellis Parker Butler was an American author, born on December 5, 1869, in Muscatine, Iowa, and passing away on September 13, 1937, in Williamsville, Massachusetts. He was prolific, having written over 30 books and more than 2,000 stories and essays throughout his career. Butler is perhaps best known for his short story "Pigs Is Pigs," which humorously critiques bureaucratic inefficiency. His works often reflected his sharp wit and ability to observe the absurdities of human nature, making him a notable figure in American literature. Butler's writing encompassed a variety of genres, including humor, satire, and social commentary, and he had a knack for addressing the quirks of daily life through comedic scenarios. His ability to capture both the mundane and the absurd in society contributed to his lasting legacy in American fiction. He married Ida A. Zipser in 1899, and the couple had several children, including Elsie McColm, Ellis Olmstead Butler, Jean Butler, Marjorie Butler, and Wallace Parker.
