S.E. Hinton grew up in a city that harbored a plethora of racial tensions. Being in Tulsa allowed her to witness a violent 'rumble', a gang fight, after which she went home and immediately began to write out her frustrations.
Not only did witnessing this rumble influence The Outsiders, but her father's death, as well. At the young age of 16, Hinton lost her father to cancer, and in most, if not all, of her novels since then have somehow or other dealt with the loss of loved ones and how to cope. For example; in The Outsiders, Pony, Soda, and Darry's parents were killed in a car accident, and since then have been forced to fight to live with one another, as opposed to living in foster homes.
Though there is much more to be said about what influenced Hinton's novel, these are the most apparent.
