Robert Wilder

Robert Wilder wurde am 23. Januar 1901 in Richmond (Virginia) als Sohn einer spanischen Mutter und eines schottischen Vaters geboren. In Daytona Beach absolvierte er die Schulen. Im Jahr 1917 trat er in die Armee für den Ersten Weltkrieg ein, indem er sein Alter etwas höher angab. Nach Kriegsende zog er nach New York, wo er sich an der Columbia-Universität einschrieb. Dort verkaufte er seinen ersten Artikel an eine Tageszeitung. Nach dem Studium arbeitete Wilder vier Jahre bei einem Theaterpresse-Agenten und lernte dort das ›Geschäft kennen. Nach dieser Zeit machte er sich selbständig und arbeitete in erster Linie für Rundfunk und Zeitungen. Er bekam bei der »New York Sun« eine eigene tägliche Spalte, für die er fast neun Jahre lang schrieb. Seit den letzten drei Jahren wohnt er in Mexiko, wo er noch zusätzlich als Korrespondent für den »Miami Herold« arbeitet. Robert Wilder ist verheiratet und hat einen Sohn.
