On Friday, November 7 Dartmouth College will celebrate the life and career of Budd Schulberg '36, arguably the greatest writer to have matriculated at Dartmouth.  Schulberg is best known as an Academy Award winning Screenwriter, Novelist, Journalist, and Sports Writer.  He was also a committed and controversial figure in American politics.  The legacy of Schulberg's career will be surveyed and placed into historical context via presentations from family members, colleagues, and scholars.  These events are free and open to the public.  A full schedule of events and speakers can be found here.
