Cather, Willa The Nebraska State Journal celebrated its sixtieth anniversary with a July 24, 1927, special edition, which included reminiscences by former Journal staff members. Retired reporter John M. Thompson recalled, among others, Willa Cather, who in her student days was dramatic and music critic for the State Journal "It is now the proper thing to say that her talent was early recognized by every one about the newspaper office where she was trying her wings. I remember the terrible scrawl which she made when using pen and ink and there is a legend about the office that her spelling was not exactly up to date. Her spelling was all right for those who understood it. It was modeled somewhat after the orthography of the Shakespearean period and was never quite the same from day to day. "I have 'been told,' as Doctor Brady would say, that a certain literary organization in Lincoln rejected Miss Cather for membership during her student days because of her independence of thought or for some other reason. I doubt if Miss Cather ever applied for membership in any literary society. . . . . If the tale be true the society is forever barred from claiming Miss Cather was 'One of Ours.' "In addition to wearing bobbed hair when bobbed hair was not the vogue Miss Cather wore short narrow skirts with a little cap and jacket and carried a cane about the university campus and was quite boyish in appearance. At the close of her college course she actually created a furore. She appeared in a ball dress and for the first time her friends beheld her as girlish, youthful and charming. . . . .

I'm home. I breathe differently. That love of great spaces, of rolling open country like the seait's the great passion of my life." Willa Sibert Cather was born on 7 December, 1873 in Back Creek Valley, Virginia. Her father was Charles Fectigue Cather (d.1928), a farmer, and her mother Mary Virginia (Jennie) Boak (d.1931). The early years of young Willa's life left a memorable impression on her and formed the basis for many of her stories and characters. The Cather's travelled west across six states landing in Nebraska, Webster county, in 1883 to live at her paternal grandfather's farm at a time when many Swedish, French and Bohemian immigrant pioneers had moved to the area with dreams of homesteading. Willa became acquaintance and friend to many of the new Americans. There was stark contrast between the lush wooded hills of Virginia and the wide open prairies and tableland of Nebraska to the ten year old tomboy. After a few years the family moved to the village of Red Cloud where Charles opened an insurance and real estate office.
