Brian Garfield Life

Brian Francis Wynne Garfield (January 26, 1939-December 29, 2018) was an American novelist and screenwriter.

He wrote his first published book at the age of 18 and wrote several books under the title "Frank Wynne" and "Brian Wynne" before gaining a following when his book Hopscotch (1975) was nominated for Best Novel in 1976.

He is best known for his 1972 book Death Wish, which was based on the 1974 film of the same name, and the 2018 remake.

Death Sentence, the 1975 sequel to Death Wish, was very closely adapted into the 2007 film of the same name; however, the novel's same examination of vigilantism was included in the film.

Garfield is also the author of The Thousand-Mile War: World War II in Alaska and the Aleutians, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for History.

Chester O'Brien, the nephew of chorus dancer and stage manager Chester O'Brien, was the nephew.

Garfield died in Pasadena, California, at the age of 79.
