}} Arnold Philip Hano (born March 2, 1922)〔("Arnold Philip Hano" ). Geni. Retrieved 2015-08-24.〕〔("United States Public Records: Person Details for Arnold P. Hano" ). Family Search. Retrieved 2015-08-24.〕 is an American editor, novelist, biographer and journalist, best known for his non-fiction work, ''A Day in the Bleachers'', a critically acclaimed eyewitness account of Game 1 of the 1954 World Series, centered around its pivotal play, Willie Mays' famous catch and throw.〔Appel, Marty. ("A Day in the Bleachers — The Willie Mays Catch" ). ''Sports Collectors Digest''. Retrieved 2015-08-24. "'A Day in the Bleachers' was an immediate hit – with reviewers. It received 65 reviews, 64 of them glowing, with a full page in the New York Herald-Tribune, and an important review in the New York Times by James ('Studs Lonegan') Farrell. But it didn’t score with the public – barely 3500 sold in a year, and it went out of print a few years later, only to reemerge in 1982 as a reissue by DeCapo Press, and again, by DeCapo, a year ago in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the game.' () "Hano was a long-time contributor to SPORT Magazine, writing over 100 features for editors Ed Fitzgerald and Al Silverman, while also developing biographies of Mays, Sandy Koufax, Roberto Clemente, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Muhammad Ali. () He also wrote western novels and 'novelizations' of motion pictures (stories based on screenplays), like 'Marriage Italian Style,' a Sophia Loren film. He wrote some early novels for Lion under 'Matthew Gant,' because, 'I didn’t want to be publishing myself while I was editor-in-chief!'."〕〔Farrell, James T. "Pastime Denizen: A Day in the Bleachers". ''The New York Times''. August 7, 1955. Accessed via ProQuest, 2015-08-24. "On Sept. 29, 1954, some 52,751 people jammed into the Polo Grounds to see the first game of that series. One of them was a highly articulate Giant fan named Arnold Hano. () He has written a pleasing and attractive book, recreating an almost legendary day in the history of baseball. He describes the practice before the game, gives vignettes of other bleacher denizens, and writes a dramatic account of the game itself—and, though we know its outcome, our interest is held here as it might be in a novel."〕〔Einstein, Charles (1983).

"As a classic baseball book like “A Day in the Bleachers” by Arnold Hano — or anything by Roger Angell — reminds us, the first tool for understanding baseball is the eyes. Trust your eyes, as Hano did at the Polo Grounds, and you can see that steroids were a huge part of baseball in the storied summer of 1998, when a pumped-up Sammy Sosa battled pumped-up Mark McGwire for Roger Maris’ single-season home-run record." * Miller, Stuart (2006).

("Bronx Banter Interview: Arnold Hano" ). Alex Belth Bronx Banter. September 28, 2009. Retrieved 2015-08-24.〕 A Yankee fan at 4, Hano responded to New York's 1926 World Series loss by switching his allegiance from the Yankees to the Giants, where it has remained ever since.〔(About the Author: Arnold Hano ). Arion Press. Retrieved 2015-08-31.〕 That same year, his family moved from Manhattan to the Bronx, where it would remain for more than a decade, precisely the period which, by Hano's own reckoning, comprised his formative years. By age three, Hano had learned to read under the tutelage of his six-and-a-half-year-old brother, Alfred, Jr.〔Hano, Arnold. ("Life With Alfie" ). ''Orange Coast Magazine''. November 1990. Retrieved 2015-09-02.〕 By the time he was eight, Hano was writing news stories for his brother's mimeographed weekly, ''The Montgomery Avenue News'', albeit stories paraphrased from published newspaper articles. Before long, he grew tired of recycling other people's ideas. Once again, his brother encouraged him: ''So I invented a cop who would always fall to his knees when he shot the bad guy and I called it Sitting Bull. It was my first pun. () I did about six or seven of these episodic things. I was eight years old, writing the equivalent of a novel for a street newspaper that we sold for a nickel a copy, door-to-door.''〔 The brothers' journalistic venture soon ran its course, and the writing muse receded, for the time being. Hano attended DeWitt Clinton High School, graduating in 1937,〔 and started that fall at Long Island University's Brooklyn campus. However, his initial plan to pursue a career in medicine soon fell by the wayside. ''One day I wandered into the newspaper office, and they were laughing. I didn’t know you were allowed to have fun. They were enjoying themselves, so I changed from a science major to an English journalism major in my sophomore year. I became the sports editor of the college weekly in my junior year, and senior year I was editor-in-chief with another guy.''〔 For a budding sportswriter, the timing proved particularly fortuitous when LIU's basketball team won the recently established National Invitational Tournament (NIT) in two of those three years.〔Blevins, Dave (2012). (''The Sports Hall of Fame Encyclopedia: Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hockey, Soccer, Volume 1'' ). Lanham, MD. p. 67. ISBN 0810861305. Retrieved 2015-08-24.〕 Long before that transpired, however, Hano knew one thing for certain. "I didn’t know how or what – would it be a newspaper, or freelance, or a novelist, but I knew I’d write."〔 Hano went on to earn his Bachelors degree, graduating cum laude in 1941.〔"195 Are Graduated at L.I.U.
