| Christina Aziz |
American novelist and playwright who wrote several books on American life in the first decade of the nineteenth century. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1925 for her novel "So Big" (1924). At the beginning of her life, she aspired to become an actress, but when she reached the age of seventeen, her father lost his sight, so she had to work as a journalist for the Appleton Daily Crescent. Among her works are "Buttered Side Down" (1912), "A Kind of Magic" (1963), and "The Land Is Bright" (1941). Some of her works have been adapted into movies, such as Giant (1956) and Come and Get It (1936). She died on April 16, 1968 in New York City, New York, USA.
