Privately organized and run, it coordinated American writers with government and quasi-government agencies that needed written work to help win the war. It was established in 1942 by author Rex Stout at the request of the United States Department of the Treasury. ==Background== Due to the public skepticism of propaganda due to the heavy-handed efforts of the Committee on Public Information in the US during World War I, and the fascist regimes' propaganda machinery, the U.S. had adopted a "strategy of truth" whereby they would disseminate information but not try to influence the public directly through propaganda.〔William L. O'Neill, ''A Democracy At War: America's Fight At Home and Abroad in World War II'', ISBN 0-02-923678-9〕 However, seeing the value and need of propaganda, ways were found to circumvent official policy.〔Thomas Howell, The Writers' War Board: U.S. Domestic Propaganda in World War II, Historian, Volume 59 Issue 4, Pages 795 - 813〕 The Writers' War Board began its work December 9, 1941, two days after Pearl Harbor,〔 with a speech by author Rex Stout. The civilian organization was formed at the request of John Street, head of the writing staff for the U.S. Treasury Department. Street spoke with playwright Howard Lindsay about organizing a group of prominent writers to promote the sale of war bonds. Lindsay spoke with his writing partner, Russel Crouse, and they approached Authors League president Rex Stout, who they felt should lead the group. On January 6, 1942, Stout met with Crouse, Pearl S. Buck, Clifton Fadiman, Oscar Hammerstein II and John P. Marquand, and the Writers' War Committee was formed. The organization soon grew beyond its modest founding mission and it was renamed the Writers' War Board.〔McAleer, John J., ''Rex Stout: A Biography'', foreword by P. G. Wodehouse.
