A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick The Giver, the 1994 Newbery Medal winner, has become one of the most influential novels of our time. The haunting story centers on twelve-year-old Jonas, who lives in a seemingly ideal, if colorless, world of conformity and contentment. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver of Memory does he begin to understand the dark, complex secrets behind his fragile community. Lois Lowry has written three companion novels to The Giver, including Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.
Lois Lowry (born Lois Ann Hammersberg on March 20, 1937) is an American writer. She is the author of several books for children and young adults, including The Giver Quartet and Number the Stars. She is known for writing about difficult subject matters and complex themes in works for young The Giver audiences.
Lowry has won two Newbery Medals: for Number the Stars in 1990 and The Giver in 1994.[2] Her book Gooney Bird Greene won the 2002 Rhode Island Children's Book Award.
Lowry was born on March 20, 1937, in Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii,[3] to Katherine Gordon Landis and Robert The Giver E. Hammersberg. Initially, Lowry's parents named her "Cena" for her Norwegian grandmother but upon hearing the news, her grandmother telegraphed and instructed Lowry's parents that the child should have an American name.[4]
Lowry was the middle child, with an older sister, Helen, and a younger brother, Jon.[5] Helen died of The Giver cancer in 1962,[6] but Lowry and her brother still share
a close relationship.[7]
Lowry's father was an army dentist, whose work moved the family all over the United States and to many parts of the world. Lowry and her family moved from Hawaii to Brooklyn, New York, in 1939, when The Giver Lowry was two years old. They relocated in 1942 to her mother's hometown, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, when Lowry's father was deployed to the Pacific during World War II.[6]
After the war, Lowry and her family moved to Tokyo, Japan, where her father was stationed from 1948 to 1950. Lowry went through The Giver junior high school at a school for the children of military families, The American School in Japan, and returned to the United States to attend high school. Lowry and her family briefly lived in Carlisle again in 1950 before they moved to Governors Island, New York, where Lowry attended Curtis The Giver High School, on Staten Island. She began attending Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn Heights, New York, in 1952, and she
graduated in 1954 before she attended Brown University.[6]
Lowry continued at the school for two years and left after her marriage to Donald Grey Lowry, a U.S. Navy officer, in The Giver 1956.[6] Together, they had four children: the daughters Alix and Kristin and the sons Grey and Benjamin.[6]
While raising her children, Lowry completed her degree in English literature at the University of Southern Maine[8] in Portland, Maine, in 1972. After earning her B.A., she continued at the school to pursue The Giver graduate studies.
In 1977, at the age of 40, Lowry had her first book, "A Summer to Die", published. She and Donald Lowry divorced that year.[6]
Lowry's son Grey, a USAF major, was killed in the crash of his fighter plane in 1995.[9] Lowry has acknowledged that it was the The Giver most difficult day of her life, and she said, "His death in the cockpit of a warplane tore away a piece of my world. But it left me, too, with
a wish to honor him by joining the many others trying to find a way to end conflict on this The Giver very fragile earth."[7]
Lowry now has homes in both Massachusetts and Maine and remains an active writer and speaker.[6]
Lowry began her career as a freelance journalist. In the 1970s, she submitted a short story to Redbook magazine, which was intended for adult audiences but written from a child's perspective.[6] The Giver An editor at Houghton Mifflin then suggested to Lowry that she write a children's book.[6] Lowry agreed and wrote A Summer to Die which Houghton Mifflin published in 1977 when she was 40 years old. The book has themes of terminal illness, based on Lowry's own experiences with her sister The Giver Helen.[6] Lowry continued to write about difficult topics in her next publication, Autumn Street (1979), which explores themes of coping with racism, grief, and fear at a young age.[6] The novel is told from the perspective of a young girl
who is sent to live with her grandfather during World The Giver War II, based on by Lowry's own experiences during the war.[1] The same year she published Autumn Street, Lowry also published her novel Anastasia Krupnik, the first installment in the Anastasia series.[1] The series continued until 1995.
Lowry's work Number the Stars was published in 1989, and received multiple awards, including The Giver the 1990 Newbery medal.[2] Lowry received the Newbery medal again in 1994, for The Giver (1993).[2] After writing The Giver, she published two companion novels which take place in the same universe: Gathering Blue (2000) and Messenger (2004). In 2012, she published Son, which tied all three of the previous The Giver books together. As a set, they are considered The Giver Quartet.[1]
In her works, Lowry has explored such complex issues as racism, terminal illness, murder, the Holocaust, and the questioning of authority, among other challenging topics. Her writing on such matters has brought her both praise and criticism. In particular, The Giver
