"Salinger was raised in Park Avenue privilege, sought out combat, surviving the bloody battles of WWII, and out of the crucible he created a novel, The Catcher in the Rye, which journeyed deep into his own despair and redefined postwar America. For 50 years, Salinger has been one of the most reclusive figures in American history."
