Statement for Class Record
Mailer's 214-word statement for the Harvard Class of 1943: Tenth Anniversary Report — the second of his recurring class-record entries — reprising his life from his March 1944 Army induction to his work on an as-yet-unnamed novel, The Deer Park.
Statement for class record. In Harvard College, Class of 1943: Tenth Anniversary Report, 262. Cambridge: Harvard University.
In his 214-word statement, Mailer reprises his activities from his induction into the Army in March 1944 to his current work on an unnamed novel — The Deer Park (55.4). The entry is more than twice the length of his 83-word 1949 statement (49.4).
This is the second of several class-record statements Mailer submits across the decades: 49.4 (1949 Sexennial Report), 53.5 (this one), 58.6 (1958), and 83.59 (1983).
