== Early life and career ==
Born in Hartselle, Alabama, Huie was the son of John Bradford and Margaret Lois Brindley Huie, and was the eldest of three children. He attended Morgan County High School and graduated as class valedictorian. He attended the University of Alabama, graduating Phi Beta Kappa in 1930.
From 1932 to 1936, Huie worked as a journalist, for the newspaper ''The Birmingham Post''. In 1934, he married his grammar school sweetheart, Ruth Puckett. Their wedding took place in her parents' home in Hartselle. Huie later immortalized the scene in his largely autobiographical first novel, ''Mud on the Stars'' (1942).
In late 1938, Huie was in Los Angeles and worked independently as an undercover reporter to gather information on gangster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel. He reported on his experiences in the Los Angeles Times and later in the December 1950 issue of ''The American Mercury,'' a literary magazine.
