To Kill a Mockingbird Lesson Plan | About the Author

LEE, HARPER. To Kill a Mockingbird is fiction, but it has at least a few similarities to Harper Lee's own life. Like her character Scout, Harper Lee attended public schools and her father was an attorney.

Harper Lee was born in Monroeville, Alabama on Arpil 28, 1926. After attending public schools, she studied law at the University of Alabama, but she never completed her law degree. She moved to New York where she worked as an airline reservation clerk and pursued her writing career.

In 1961 Miss Lee won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction for To Kill a Mockingbird.
