John Rechy

}}
John Francisco Rechy (born March 10, 1931) is a Mexican American novelist, essayist, memoirist, dramatist and literary critic. In his novels he has written extensively about homosexual culture in Los Angeles and wider America, among other subject matters, and is among the pioneers of modern LGBT literature. His debut novel ''City of Night'', published in 1963, was a best seller and is widely considered a seminal work in 20th century literature. Drawing on his own background, he has contributed to Chicano literature, notably with his novel ''The Miraculous Day of Amalia Gomez'', which has been taught in several Chicano literature courses throughout the United States.
==Background==
Rechy was born March 10, 1931 in El Paso, Texas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=EL PASO COUNTY, TEXAS - BIRTHS 1931, N-R ) NOTE: Although many literary encyclopedias and biographies published in the 1960s through the 1990s list Rechy's year of birth as 1934, most such publications released since that period list the birth year as 1931. The latter is consistent with the year stated in the official Texas birth records, and (Rechy himself has acknowledged 1931 as his birth year ).〕 He was the youngest of five children born to Guadalupe (née Flores) and Roberto Sixto Rechy. Both of Rechy's parents were natives of Mexico, his father was of Scottish lineage.〔
He earned a B.A. in English from Texas Western College (now University of Texas at El Paso), where he served as editor of the college newspaper.〔

Following graduation from college, Rechy enlisted in the U.S. Army. He was granted early release from the Army to enroll as a graduate student at Columbia University. He applied for admission to a creative writing class taught by novelist Pearl S. Buck by submitting an unpublished novel he had written titled "Pablo!" While his application to Buck's class was not accepted, Rechy was admitted into the writing classes of Hiram Haydn, a senior editor at Random House, at the New School for Social Research.〔
