ABOUT THE AUTHUR

Mario Puzo was born on Manhattan ’s West Side in a neighborhood known for decades as Hell’s Kitchen. His first books, The Fortunate Pilgrim (“a minor classic” NY Times) and Dark Arena, brought him critical acclaim, but it was publication of The Godfather in March, 1969, that catapulted him into the front ranks of American authors. The Godfather is available in a Signet edition.
