Happy Birthday, O. Henry
September 11, 2015
Read a story today and remember William Sidney Porter, born here on September 11, 1862. Porter’s dreams of becoming a writer came true. He’s still quoted (look it up!), and his stories are still known for their surprise endings.
If you don’t feel like reading, check out the vintage film O. Henry’s Full House, with a Hollywood cast and narration by John Steinbeck, available on DVD.
