DL consignment. Shelved Room C. Don DeLillo was born November 20, 1936 in the Bronx, New York City to an Italian-American family. DeLillo hadn't taken much interest in writing until working as a parking attendant where he read throughout much of his shifts, developing a love of modernist fiction, which alongside jazz and several postwar films became major influences on his writing. His first novel, "Americana" would be released in 1971 after four years of work followed by continual releases of his next seven novels through 1982. "White Noise" would release in 1985 and would become DeLillo's breakout novel, solidifying him as a notable and respected novelist and bringing his works to a much wider audience. "White Noise" has been immensely influential to various authors, including the works of author Richard Powers who wrote an introduction for the 25th anniversary edition. "White Noise" would also be adapted into a film of the same name in 2022 starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig which released to mixed, but generally positive reviews. 1388306. Special Collections.
