Harold Wayne Greenhaw (February 17, 1940 – May 31, 2011) was an American writer and journalist. The author of 22 books who chronicled changes in the American South from the civil rights movement to the rise of a competitive Republican Party, he is known for his works on the Ku Klux Klan and the exposition of the My Lai Massacre of 1968. Greenhaw wrote for various Alabamian newspapers and magazines, worked as the state's tourism director, and was considered "a strong voice for his native state". ==Biography==
Born in Sheffield, Alabama, Greenhaw and his family moved to Tuscaloosa when he was ten. He attended Tuscaloosa High School, and at age fourteen contracted polio and spent the better part of a year in a body cast. During this time he read Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner and decided to become a writer. He enrolled at the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa and studied under the creative writing professor Hudson Strode.〔 He wrote for ''The Montgomery Journal'' (which was later incorporated into the ''Montgomery Advertiser'') and helped break the story of the indictment of William Calley for murder on September 12, 1969; Greenhaw was one of only a few people who spent time with Calley in that time, having him over at his house in Montgomery, Alabama. The story earned him a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard University in 1973.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nieman Fellowships )〕 He wrote for and edited the ''Alabama Magazine'' in the 1980s, and wrote for ''The New York Times'' and ''Time''. From 1993 to 1994, he served as Alabama's state tourism director under Democratic Governor James Folsom, Jr.,〔 and was awarded the Harper Lee Award for Alabama's Distinguished Writer in 2006.〔 His papers are held in Auburn Montgomery's library. Greenhaw died on May 31, 2011, in Birmingham from complications during heart surgery.
