Frank Baum never seemed to run out of ideas. Throughout his life, he pursued a variety of whims and ventures as a writer, printer, poultry breeder, store owner, theater enthusiast, salesman and reporter. In the end, however, it culminated in his near-financial ruin. To the grounded individual, this rootless behavior possibly revealed a lack of maturity. But perhaps it took a man like Baum who followed his imagination and indulged in the art of chasing rainbows to write a book like The Wonderful Wizard of OZ in 1900. Near the turn of the century, Baum published Mother Goose in Prose (1897) and Father Goose: His Book (1899), which became the best-selling children�¢s book of the year and, finally, The Wonderful Wizard of OZ (1900), a best-selling children�¢s book for two years in a row. After its success, Baum authored 13 more novels based on the land of OZ at requests from fans and produced a stage musical version of the book for adult audiences that ran on Broadway from 1902-1911. Unfortunately, this was the last success Baum would enjoy. After publishing a series of fantasy fiction books and financing unsuccessful stage musicals, Baum was forced to sell the rights to many of his books, including The Wonderful Wizard of OZ , to pay off his debts. He died from a stroke on May 6, 1919. His last novel

Frank Baum (1856-1919) children's author, playwright and journalist wrote the American classic The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Lyman Frank Baum was born 15 May, 1856 in Chittenango, New York. His father was Benjamin Ward Baum, who would make a fortune in Pennsylvania Oil, and his mother Cynthia Stanton. Frank, as he preferred to be called, was born with a weak heart so wasn't a boisterous child, but timid and shy. He was home schooled and having few playmates, he also spent hours reading in his father's library. He developed an aversion to the usual scary creatures and violence of folklore and popular children's fairytales of the time and would end up creating his own adaptations of them in order to give other children, later including his own, delight in stories rather than grim and frightful moral lessons. Baum's childhood and home life with nine siblings was happy and no doubt set the tone for his future Oz series.

Frank Baum Chances are you have seen the 1939 MGM movie, The Wizard of Oz at one point or another in your lifetime. But the chances maybe even greater that you do not associate it with L. Frank Baum, the author of the book on which the film was based. In fact, most people have probably never heard of him at all unless they have read his work or were born around the time when he was popular. Whether it is shown on television annually or rented at the local video store, The Wizard of Oz has become a staple of American popular culture. Young or old, we know where the famous, unforgettable lines originate; we know the characters by heart: Dorothy, Toto, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion, as well as the munchkins. Oz is as familiar as our own backyards. Advertisement: Although the movie and the book differ in minor ways, the premise is similar and so are most of the characters. The only significant difference, that might matter to a child and possibly to an adult, is that in the movie, Dorothy's journey to Oz is only a dream, purely imaginary, in other words, not real. In the book, however, there is no such rationale. Instead it invites the child to use his or her imagination as a creative, transforming force and to accept the journey, and Oz as a real place full of hope over the rainbow, where the child could escape ordinary life. Baum believed in the power of the imagination in the child. Oz really existed if only we believed it did.

This thoughtful volume outlines numerous examples of human folly, from end-of-the-world prophets to ocular misperception, and makes a strong case for becoming more transparent about human fallibility, even when the results can be quite deadly.

His father was the oil magnate Benjamin Ward Baum and his mother, Cynthia (Stanton) Baum, was a women's rights activist. Baum grew up with his seven brothers and sisters on a large estate just north of Syracuse. “The cool but sun-kissed mansion... was built in a quaint yet pretty fashion, with many wings and gables and broad verandas on every side," Baum later wrote in Dot and Tot in Fairyland Until the age of twelve, Baum was privately tutored at home. In the late 1860’s he spent two years at Peekskill Military Academy, where he learned to loathe rigid discipline. In 1873 Baum became a reporter on the New York World . Two years later he founded the New Era Weekly in Pennsylvania. He was a poultry farmer with B.W. Baum and Son, edited Poultry Record , and wrote columns for New York Farmer and Dairyman . Baum's father owned a string of theatres, and Baum left journalism to become an actor. In New York he acted as George Brooks with May Roberts and the Sterling Comedy in plays that Baum, himself, had written. He owned an opera house in 1882-83 and toured with his own repertory company. In 1882 he married Maud Gage; they had four sons.
