Jim was a prolific and gifted writer publishing over three dozen books in several styles, including poetry, fiction, nonfiction, children’s literature, and a memoir. His breakout work came in 1978 with the publication of the trilogy “Legends of the Fall,” which was made into a movie starring Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins. Harrison passed away in 2016.
