Dreiser (1871-1945), an American writer, grew up in poverty as the son of a German immigrant and the ninth of ten children. An exemplary member of the naturalist literary movement, he rejected the stylized work of the Victorian period in favor of real-life subjects, often describing events in gritty detail.
