-real name is Susan Eloise Hinton
-born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA
-on July 22, 1948
-Her publisher suggested she use her initials instead of her first name so that male reviewers would not ignore the novel for having written by a female (I think it's a bit of a discrimination, isn't it)
-chose to continue using her initials, perhaps to etter separate her public from her private life
-was trained to be a teacher but she never taught. After her practice-teaching, she realized she became too emotionally involved with her students' life
-her boyfriend (became her husband) helped her work through this by declaring that unless she wrote 2 pages a day he wasn't going out with her that night.
-her husband is called David and her so is called Nick
Yes, S.E. Hinton is notable for writing her first novel, "The Outsiders", when she was only 16 years old. Published in 1967, the book has since become a classic of young adult literature. Hinton used her initials to disguise her gender as she felt her work would not be taken seriously if it was known she was a woman.
SE. Hinton wrote The Outsiders book at the age of16. She got her information from a group at her school, and some research. This book mostly is about teenagers struggles. In school SE. Hinton was a tomboy and played football with the guys. She did not feel that she wanted to be in any group in school. The Greasers do not have the same names as the people in the book though. SE. Hinton is a girl and put the name SE Hinton so that men too would also read the book without knowing it was wrote by a girl. SE. Hinton wrote many other books besides The Outsiders. This is a great book and I personally think that many people should read it!
