== Early life and education ==
Louis D. Rubin, Jr. was born in Charleston, South Carolina, the eldest of the three children of Louis D. Rubin, Sr. and Jeanette Weinstein Rubin. His father, who later became well known in Virginia as an amateur weather forecaster and published a book on weather forecasting, owned an electrical supply business.〔 Rubin studied for two years at the College of Charleston, then was drafted into the U.S. Army during World War II; he studied Italian at Yale University as part of the Army Specialized Training Program, then worked as a journalist for the base newspaper at Fort Benning. After the war he received a B.A. from the University of Richmond in 1946, and an M.A. and Ph.D from the Johns Hopkins University in 1949 and 1954, respectively.〔 Rubin's childhood in Charleston and experience as a Jew growing up in the American South were among subjects he explored in three novels and a series of nonfiction memoirs.〔 The city had been economically and culturally stagnant since the end of the Civil War in 1865, but in the 1920s and 1930s saw a growing tourist industry and the stirrings of economic modernization that brought the contrasts between Charleston's insularity and modern America to his attention.
