One Writer's Beginnings
''One Writer's Beginnings'' 〔Welty, Eudora. ''One Writer's Beginnings''. (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press 1984) (ISBN 0-674-63925-1).〕 is a collection of autobiographical essays by Eudora Welty, winner of the 1973 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.〔(Pulitzer Prize Winners ). List of Pulitzer Prize Winners maintained by the Pulitzer Prize Board.〕 The book is based on three lectures she delivered at Harvard University in April 1983, as part of the William E. Massey Sr. lecture series. The three essays are entitled: ''Listening'', ''Learning to See'', and ''Finding a Voice.'' Well received by both critics and fans alike, ''One Writer's Beginnings'' was on ''The New York Times'' bestseller list for almost a year.〔Tolson, Jay. ''Eudora Welty: The Necessary Optimist''. The Wilson Quarterly 23 (Winter 1999), p. 74.〕
In the essays, Ms. Welty explains the inescapable bond between her childhood in Mississippi and her later career as a writer. She shares details from her childhood and her relationship with her parents, Christian Welty and Chestina Andrews Welty. She discusses how these two critical relationships, and other relationships from her childhood, contributed to her literary voice. The book has been praised as revealing "the confluence of past and present as the design of Welty's life and art by making such intersection the structural principle behind her lifestory as an artist."〔Ciuba, Gary M. ''Time as Confluence: Self and Structure in Welty's'' One Writer's Beginnings. The Southern Literary Journal 26 (1993), p. 78.〕
The book includes a number of Welty family photos.
The lectures were published in book form by Harvard University Press in 1984.
