The Willa Cather Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that owns and operates the National Willa Cather Center and the nation's largest collection of nationally-designated historic sites dedicated to an American author. With a focus on celebrating the work, life, and legacy of Willa Cather, the Foundation serves as a vibrant memorial to this Pulitzer Prize-winning author through scholarly endeavors, educational outreach, arts and humanities programs, and the preservation of historical settings and archives. As one of the most important American novelists of the first half of the twentieth century, Willa Cather is increasingly recognized as a canonical American writer, on par with authors like Hemingway, Faulkner, and Wharton. The Willa Cather Foundation offers a range of resources for readers, writers, teachers, and students, including guided tours, exhibits, and a tri-annual release of the Willa Cather Review. Additionally, the Foundation operates the Willa Cather Childhood Home, a National Historic Landmark that provides visitors with a deeper understanding of the daily lives of the Cather family.Generated from the website
