Overview: Born in Duluth, Minnesota in 1926, Williams’ family moved to New Hampshire when he was a child and he spent most of his life working and writing in that state, although he attended the Iowa Writers’ Workshop, the University of Chicago, and studied briefly in Paris. For most of his career he taught at the University of New Hampshire, and published eight novels during his lifetime. His students included among them Alice McDermott and John Irving. Irving wrote an introduction to a posthumous collection of Williams’s collected stories, Leah, New Hampshire (1992). Williams lived in Durham, NH and died of lung cancer at a hospital in Dover, NH when he was 63.
Williams is the father of writer and novelist Ann Joslin Williams who is the author of a collection of linked stories called The Woman in the Woods, which won the 2005 Spokane Prize. Joslin Williams’ first novel Down From Cascom Mountain, was published in 2011. Like her father, she attended the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and (as of 2011) is a Professor at the University of New Hampshire.
