ON THIS DAY…John Grisham was born on February 8, 1955, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and spent his early childhood on a cotton farm near Black Oak, Arkansas. His upbringing in this rural northeast Arkansas Delta region, where his family worked as cotton farmers and construction workers, inspired his novel A Painted House.

Let's talk about John Rollin Ridge!

Also known as Chees-quat-a-law-ny or Yellow Bird, he was a Cherokee writer born in New Echota in 1827. He spent part of his youth right here in Northwest Arkansas, attending the Ozark Institute.

He became the first Native American to publish a full-length novel in English (The Life and Adventures of Joaquín Murieta, 1854), a story that helped shape early Western outlaw tales.

But before California, he was a young poet living in the Ozarks, putting words to the beauty and the heartbreak around him.

I’m working on a full video about his Arkansas chapter, his writing, and why his story matters to our region.

Stay tuned—it’s coming soon! In the meantime, drop a comment: Have you read anything by John Rollin Ridge before?
