Nixon's stories characteristically show both sides of the issues on which she focuses: of the teenage prostitute, the drug addict, even the wife beater.

 The Creation of Bigger Thomas and the Trial of Robert Nixon   (Site not responding. Last check: )

Despite Nixon’s confessions and the eagerness of Chicago and Los Angeles police to prove the young man guilty, the International Labor Defense learned of the case and provided Nixon and Hicks with a white lawyer, Joseph Roth, to assist the fl lawyers already assigned to the case.
