William Cuthbert Faulkner ( ; September 25, 1897 – July 6, 1962) was an American writer and Nobel Prize laureate from Oxford, Mississippi.
 Faulkner wrote novels, short stories, a play, poetry, essays, and screenplays.
 He is primarily known for his novels and short stories set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, based on Lafayette County, Mississippi, where he spent most of his life.
The William Faulkner Foundation (1960-1970) was a charitable organization founded by the novelist William Faulkner in 1960 to support various charitable causes, all educational or literary in nature.
Rowan Oak, also known as William Faulkner House, is William Faulkner's former home in Oxford, Mississippi.
 It is a primitive Greek Revival house built in the 1840s by Robert Sheegog.
 Faulkner purchased the house when it was in disrepair in the 1930s and did many of the renovations himself.
 Other renovations were done in the 1950s.
 The house sits on 4 landscaped and twenty nine acres of largely wooded property known as Bailey's Woods.
 One of its more famous features is the outline of Faulkner's Pulitzer Prize–winning novel "A Fable", penciled in graphite and red on the plaster wall of his study.
 Though the "rowan oak" is a mythical tree, the grounds and surrounding woods of Rowan Oak contain hundreds of species of native Mississippi plants, most of which date back to antebellum times.
 The alley of cedars that lines the driveway was common in the 19th century.
 The studs of the house are 4"x4" square cypress, which were hand-hewn.
 Faulkner drew much inspiration for his treatment of multi-layered Time from Rowan Oak, where past and future seemed to inhabit the present.
Lindsay Harry Crosby (January 5, 1938 – December 11, 1989) was an American actor and singer.
 He was one of four sons of Bing Crosby and Dixie Lee; the others were his older brothers Gary and the twins Phillip and Dennis.
 Lindsay began his career singing alongside his three brothers and his father, Bing Crosby.
 He was remembered by his friends for having a special laid back and clever wit like his father.

The Sound and the Fury is a novel written by the American author William Faulkner.
 It employs a number of narrative styles, including stream of consciousness.
 Published in 1929, "The Sound and the Fury" was Faulkner's fourth novel, and was not immediately successful.
 In 1931, however, when Faulkner's sixth novel, "Sanctuary", was published—a sensationalist story, which Faulkner later claimed was written only for money—"The Sound and the Fury" also became commercially successful, and Faulkner began to receive critical attention.
Harry Crosby (June 4, 1898 – December 10, 1929) was an American heir, bon vivant, poet, and publisher who for some epitomized the Lost Generation in American literature.
 He was the son of one of the richest banking families in New England, a Boston Brahmin, and the nephew of Jane Norton Grew, the wife of financier J. P. Morgan, Jr..
 As such, he was heir to a portion of a substantial family fortune.
 He was a volunteer in the American Field Service during World War I, and later served in the U.S. Ambulance Corps.
 He narrowly escaped with his life.
"That Evening Sun" is a short story by the American author William Faulkner, published in 1931 on the collection "These 13", which included Faulkner's most anthologized story, "A Rose for Emily".
 The story was originally published, in a slightly different form, as "That Evening Sun Go Down" in "The American Mercury" in March of the same year.
 "That Evening Sun" is a dark portrait of white Southerners' indifference to the crippling fears of one of their black employees, Nancy.
 The story is narrated by Quentin Compson, one of Faulkner's most memorable characters, and concerns the reactions of him and his two siblings, Caddy and Jason, to an adult world that they do not fully understand.
 The black washerwoman, Nancy Mannigoe, fears that her common-law husband Jesus is seeking to murder her because she is pregnant with a white man's child.
 The title is thought to be taken from the song Saint Louis Blues, originally composed by W.C. Handy, but popularized by Bessie Smith and Louis Armstrong in 1927.
 Faulkner first came across Handy's music when the latter played dances in Oxford, Mississippi.
 Though the song is never explicitly referenced in the text, Faulkner employs a number of blues tropes to structure the plot and develop racial stereotypes.
 Scholar Ken Bennett notes that "the image of the 'evening sun' is a common one in black religious music.
 For example, the spiritual 'It's Gettin' Late Over in the Evenin', the Sun Most Down,' based on Revelation 20, uses the image of the evening sun to suggest the coming of death and judgment."
