Autor

Will Rogers, born on November 4, 1879, in Oologah, Indian Territory (now Oklahoma), was an American cowboy, vaudeville performer, humorist, social commentator, and actor, known widely for his unique blend of homespun wisdom and witticism. He rose from a humble background working on the family's ranch, to become one of the most popular public figures of the early 20th century. His career spanned multiple disciplines, but he is perhaps best remembered for his writings, which encapsulate the voice of a nation during transformative times. In his book 'Rogers-isms, the Cowboy Philosopher on the Peace Conference', Rogers provides a poignant and comedic take on the post-World War I peace talks. His style, often characterized as satirical yet earnest, offered a critique of politics and society, highlighting the absurdities of the human condition, while simultaneously evoking a sense of unity and common sense. Rogers tragically passed away in a plane crash on August 15, 1935, but his legacy persists through his prolific output of books, newspaper columns, and radio appearances, leaving an indelible mark on American literature as a beloved humorist and commentator on life and politics.
