You'll remember William Saroyan. He was the acclaimed Armenian
American novelist and playwright from Fresno who published some 4,000
works in his 47-year career. Included among his honors were a
Pulitzer Prize, an Academy Award and a Drama Critics Circle Award.
This year is his birth centennial (1908-2008), and a celebration is
at hand involving more than 40 regional and state organizations that
will sponsor exhibits, musical performances, writing contests,
lectures, activities at universities and colleges, theatrical
productions and readings. For an events calendar and more
