Bill Henderson (novelist)

William McCranor Henderson (born in 1943 in Charlotte, North Carolina) is an American author whose writing explores the mutual influences of popular culture and literature, and the dark side of celebrity. ''Boston Magazine'' noted that his work displays "a real feel for the sad, ridiculous squalor in America, the tacky bars and beauty shops and motel swimming pools, the even cheaper dreams of the people who hang out at them." Henderson, according to ''The Philadelphia Inquirer'', "has managed the estimable feat of breathing new life into the theme of adulation and emulation in a fame-happy era." Provided by Wikipedia
