Biography:Distinguished American author William Faulkner has written numerous classic novels and has won both the Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes. Many of his works have been adapted into films including "Sound and the Fury" (1959) and "The Reivers" (1969). Though others adapted his work, Faulkner refused to adapt it himself. He did however work on the screenplays of others and frequently worked in conjunction with Howard Hawks. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
