Trivia
His widow, Sonora Babb, waited 65 years in the shadow of a literary giant for her first completed novel to be published. Upstaged in 1939 by John Steinbeck's best-selling "The Grapes of Wrath" her tale about the travails of a Depression-era farm family was shelved by Random House. At 97, Babb earned long-overdue praise for the novel "Whose Names Are Unknown" when it was rescued by the University of Oklahoma Press in 2004.

Citas
[on John Frankenheimer] I don't think John really understands dramatic values; he's more or less mechanically inclined: lenses and camera and that. All that's my job; he ought to worry about the story and the actors.
