A Brief Biography of F. Scott Fitzgerald
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on September 24, 1986. His name came from his second cousin, Francis Scott Key, who wrote the “Star-Spangled Banner”. Fitzgerald was a very bright child who had a love for novels and creating them. His first piece of work was created at the age of 13 while attending St. Paul Academy. After graduating in the year of 1913, he attended Princeton to continue learning and exploring the art of writing. In 1917, he was forced onto probation from school to join the U.S. Army in World War I. With the fear of dying in war without fulfilling his dreams of becoming a writer, he finished writing The Romantic Egotist shortly before he was drawn into war.
