Abstract

Malcolm Ross describes his childhood in Fredericton, New Brunswick. He discusses the scarcity of libraries at the time, and how this situation was improved during the 1920s and 30s. He has done graduate work at Cornell University, and has taught there as well as in Indiana. Later, during his years of teaching in Manitoba, he had as students Margaret Laurence and Adele Wiseman. He worked with the Film Board, and was editor of Queen's Quarterly. He was also instrumental in starting the New Canadian Library series.
