Howe, Irving (1920-1993)

US literary critic and biographer. Howe's career is notable for blending socialist activism and literary and cultural criticism. Founder and editor of Dissent from 1954, his numerous essays and books concern most notably the American novel, the position of literary intellectuals in modern America, and New York's Jewish immigrants.

He was born in New York City. He was educated at City College (where he joined the faculty in 1963) and was associated with the ‘New York intellectuals’ in the 1940s.
