Tough question to answer. Total number of fiction, non-fiction and poetic authors? Total number of best-selling authors? Of relatively successful/well-known authors?

I'd like to make a suggestion out of pride and allegiance to my humble state of Kentucky that Kentucky does well when it comes to producing/hosting respected authors.

Wendell Berry, John James Audubon, Harriette Simpson Arnow, Harry Caudill, Sue Grafton, Silas House, Bobbie Ann Mason, Ed McClanahan, Marsha Norman, Hunter S Thompson, Robert Penn Warren, James Still, Jesse Stuart, Thomas Merton, Sena Jeter Naslund, Barbara Kingsolver...

I wouldn't say definitively, but I think Kentucky does well for herself.

You might try looking up wikipedia's Famous people from... (state name) to get an idea.
