di Donato, Pietro

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.09 sec.

di Donato, Pietro (1911–1992)

US writer. His semi-autobiographical novel, Christ in Concrete (1939), brought him instant fame. His subsequent fiction, mostly naturalistic portrayals of the hard lives of Italian working-class immigrants in the USA, never gained the same response as his earlier book.

He was born in West Hoboken, New Jersey. He wrote Three Circles of Light in 1960 and The Penitent in 1962.
