Lars Eighner was born Laurence Vail Eighner in Corpus Christi, Texas, the son of Alice Elizabeth Vail Eighner (later Harlow〔Marriage license no. 342757, Harris County (Texas) Clerk, issued 19670630, returned 19670701〕) and Lawrence Clifton Eighner, and the grandson〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tarrant Co. TX births 1927 )〕 of the Texas poets Alice Ewing Vail (''The Big Thicket''〔issued prior to ISBN, Published by Naylor Co, 1952, Amazon product no. ASIN: B0007EFZPE〕) and John Arthur Vail (''John Vail Ballads''〔Nortex Press, no other details known.〕). He grew up in Houston, Texas, and was graduated from Lamar High School in 1966. He studied creative writing under George Williams of Rice University at the Corpus Christi Fine Arts Colony, and attended the University of Texas at Austin, doing major work in ethnic studies. On July 5, 2015, Eighner was married〔http://deed.co.travis.tx.us/ords/f?p=105:30:0::NO::P30_MARRIAGE_ID,P31_INSTRUMENT_NUMBER,P30_LICENSE_STATUS:540324,01-05416-2015,Returned〕 to the man called Clint in his memoir, with whom he had lived for nearly 28 years.
Eighner began writing for publication in the early 1980s. By that time he was generally known as Lars, the result of having worked in a small office with two Larrys. Because in early writing attempts he had been confused with Black Mountain poet Larry Eigner, Eighner used 'Lars' for writing. His first book was a collection of short stories, ''Bayou Boy and Other Stories'' (Gay Sunshine Press, 1985).〔ISBN 0-917342-06-2〕 In the late 1980s, he and his dog Lizbeth became homeless, and his experiences as a homeless person in Austin, Texas; Los Angeles, and places in between are the subject of ''Travels with Lizbeth.'' Eighner was elected to the Texas Institute of Letters〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Texas Institute of Letters members )〕 in 1994.
