Born Today
Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 -- July 2, 1961) was an American novelist, short-story writer, and journalist. He was part of the 1920s expatriate community in Paris, and one of the veterans of World War One later known as "the Lost Generation," a term Gertrude Stein used according to his posthumous memoir A Moveable Feast. ("'That's what you are. That's what you all are,' Miss Stein said. 'All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.'" Stein had overheard a garage owner use the phrase to criticize a mechanic.) He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 for The Old Man and the Sea, and the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954.

- From the page: "he rested the gun butt of the double-barreled shotgun on the floor of a hallway in his home, leaned over it to put the twin muzzles to his forehead just above the eyes, and pulled both triggers.[31] The coroner, at request of the family, did not do an autopsy." ======
..gee.. ..wonder why.. ..I'm sure most of you haven't seen what a shotgun blast can do to something, but if he truly pulled both triggers (even one would do it) on a 12guage double-barrel shotgun against his forehead, there wasn't anything left to do an autopsy of. [edit]: ..I thought he did it in a boat? ..is this something for my own research or do any of you readers have some proof? - From the page: "he rested the gun butt of the double-barreled shotgun on the floor of a hallway in his home, leaned over it to put the twin muzzles to his forehead just above the eyes, and pulled both triggers.[31] The coroner, at request of the family, did not do an autopsy." ======

- "Hemingway is believed to have purchased the weapon he used to commit suicide at Abercrombie & Fitch, which was then an elite excursion goods retailer and firearm supplier. (The Shotgun was a Boss & Co ordered through A&F.) In a particularly gruesome suicide, he rested the gun butt of the double-barreled shotgun on the floor of a hallway in his home, leaned over it to put the twin muzzles to his forehead just above the eyes, and pulled both triggers. The coroner, at request of the family, did not do an autopsy."
