Are novelists Walter Van Tilburg Clark and Billie Letts both American?
Walter Van Tilburg Clark Walter Van Tilburg Clark (August 3, 1909 – November 10, 1971) was an American novelist, short story writer, and educator. He ranks as one of Nevada's most distinguished literary figures of the 20th century, and was the first inductee into the 'Nevada Writers Hall of Fame' in 1988. Two of his novels, "The Ox-Bow Incident" and "The Track of the Cat," were made into films.
