I would like to add the above biography to the article, it now has the correct citations and should be included to provide more factual information about the author. Thank you Aleksadive (talk) 18:23, 15 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please use the "cite news" template for the newspaper citation. As the story is not bylined, enter staff in the first available field for author. Please provide the isbn number for the books. I've added the appropriate parameter. This provides an automatic link to Worldcat, which is a needed and easily available thing to assist our readers. Also, please provide the page numbers on the Glotfelty cite. If you need to use separate citations to do so, please do. Also note if either of the books cited have had more than one edition, you'll need to specify which edition. The title of the article is only bolded on its first mention in the lede. It should not be bolded here. John from Idegon (talk) 23:37, 15 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
