“Chandler, who was born right here in Chicago, has been referred to by many critics as one of the most important writers of the 20th century. His distinct style has influenced fiction, film and more, well beyond just the crime genre. Not only did he create one of fiction’s most memorable portraits of a city — Los Angeles– in books like The Big Sleep, Farewell My Lovely, and The Long Goodbye, he created one of the most well-known heroes of his time or ours when he created private detective Philip Marlowe. ” –Richard M. Daley
