| | Anne Tyler |
 | | Anne Tyler was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but grew up in North Carolina, as the daughter of Lloyd Parry Tyler, an industrial chemist, and Phyllis Mahon Tyler, a social worker. |
 | | These years formed background for Tyler's Southern literary flavor, which is seen in the settings of her fiction. |
 | | Before settling in Baltimore, her home town for much of her adult life, Tyler was a bibliographer at Duke University, ordering books from the Soviet Union, and worked in the law library of McGill University. |
