Mark Dennis Devlin was the author of ''Stubborn Child'' (ISBN 0-6891-1476-1), a critically acclaimed memoir published in 1985. He died on March 10, 2005. The cause of death was not released but he had battled mental illness, alcoholism, and physical problems for many years. He was fifty-six years of age.
==Stubborn Child== As a child, his alcoholic father frequently beat the Boston native. At seven years of age, Mark was deemed a "stubborn child," and locked up. Under state law, a stubborn child was one who "stubbornly refused to submit to the lawful and reasonable commands of a parent or guardian." Devlin spent most of his childhood in state institutions. He later told the press that growing up in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts juvenile justice system turned him into a criminal. Devlin testified to a state legislative committee about conditions in the reform school system as part of the process by which the schools were closed and the juvenile justice system reformed in Massachusetts.
