In the sixties, three widely acclaimed novels established Vidal’s
international reputation as a best-selling author: Julian, Washington,
D.C., and the classic Myra Breckinridge. Vidal’s political
activism has made him well-known to television audiences, while
his essays, both political and literary, have been collected in such
volumes as The Second American Revolution, winner of the
National Book Critics Circle Award® for “best critic.” Vidal’s interest
in politics has not been limited to commentary; he ran for Congress
in New York in 1960 and in the 1982 senatorial primary.
