Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback TimeSearch for Books and Writers by Bamber Gascoigne Leon (Marcus ) Uris (1924-2003) American writer whose bestseller Exodus (1958) was immediately translated into some 50 languages, among others into Finnish. Uris is known for his panoramic, action-filled novels which often depict determined individuals during the dramatic upheavals of modern history. "This was what I came to found. The conquest of loneliness was the missing link that was, one day, going to make a decent novelist out of me. If you are out here and cannot close off the loves and hates of all that back there in the real world, the memories will overtake you and swamp you and wilt your tenacity. Tenacity, stamina... close off to everything and everyone but your writing. That's the bloody price. I don't know, maybe it's some kind of ultimate selfishness. Maybe it's part of the killer instinct. Unless you can stash away and bury thoughts of your greatest love, you cannot sustain the kind of concentration that breaks most men trying to write a book over a three- or four-year period." (from Mitla Pass Leon Uris was born in Baltimore, Maryland, the son of Wolf William and Anna (Blumberg) Uris. His father, a Polish immigrant, was a paperhanger, later a storekeeper. Anna was a first-generation American; William spent a year in Palestine after World War I before entering the Unites States. He derived his surname from Yerushalmi, meaning man of Jerusalem. "He was basically a failure", Uris said later of his father. "He went from failure to failure." Uris attended schools in Norfolk, Virginia, and Baltimore, flunked three times in English, and never graduated from high school. At the age of seventeen Uris joined the United States Marine Corps. He served in the South Pacific at Guadalcanal, Tarawa, and New Zealand from 1942 to 1945. While recuperating from malaria in San Francisco, he met Betty Beck, a Marine sergeant.

"We are extremely pleased that Mr. Uris has decided to place his archive at the Ransom Center," said Dr. Thomas F. Staley, director of the Center. "Uris is one of the most popular and widely read novelists America has produced. His extensive contextual research gives his novels a sense of living presence and authority achieved by few contemporary authors." Born in Baltimore in 1924, he attended school there as well as in Philadelphia and Norfolk. Uris served in the United States Marine Corps, 1942-45, and he saw action at Guadalcanal and Tarawa. After the war, Uris drove a newspaper truck in San Francisco before turning his attention to writing in the early 1950s. Uris wrote in a converted attic after his regular job. Uris' war-time experience became the source of his best-selling first novel Battle Cry (1953), which also became famous as a film (1954). In an interview with critic Bernard Kalb, Uris said "My guiding thought throughout was that the real Marine story had not been told. We were a different breed of men who looked at war in a different way."
