","In 1997, Brown created a travel website for The Mining Company (later known as About.com or Dotdash), a digital media company, writing about theme parks around the world and the amusement park industry. As a result, he also collected materials from attractions located across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Brown worked as an actor in film, television, and theater productions. He was a cast member of Second Thought Improv and On the Edge Improvisational Theatre. As of 2024, Brown is retired and currently resides in Ocoee, Florida.

McKay attended the Episcopal Brent School in Baguio as a boarding student, as did many American children in the Philippines and surrounding Pacific at that time. Leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, many of these boarding students went home or to the United States, but McKay remained in Baguio and was subsequently separated from his family for the duration of World War II. The Japanese began attacking the Philippines on the morning of December 8, 1941, and took Baguio on December 27. McKay, along with other Brent students and teachers, and hundreds of the Allied civilians of Baguio, gathered at Brent School to surrender to the Japanese on December 28. They were initially interned at the nearby Camp John Hay, but later moved to Camp Holmes where they spent most of their internment.\n While interned at Camp Holmes, McKay was \"adopted\" by John and Zella Barrett, and dated their daughter Irene. He completed his high school education in the camp-built school and received a graduation diploma. While not in school, he was part of the Wood Crew, which was one of the many camp chore crews that the internees developed. As a member of the Wood Crew, he was able to leave the camp on a daily basis to chop wood, and while out, he could trade extra clothing for store credit to purchase food from the local Filipinos. To entertain himself, he played Cribbage with other internees. Internees also played baseball, sometimes against the Japanese guards. McKay mentioned that one Japanese commandant, Rokuro Tomibe, was instrumental in getting the camp their only Red Cross care packages in time for Christmas 1943. After Christmas of 1944, the Japanese moved the internees from Baguio to Old Bilibid Prison in Manila. They were then liberated by American forces on February 4, 1945. During the aftermath of liberation, McKay and a friend of his hitched a ride around Manila on one of the American tanks to give them directions through the city. He was then selected in the first lottery to send civilians home to the United States.\n McKay reunited with his family in San Francisco in April 1945. He was able to transition into college despite having been interned for three years. He believed his life was not greatly affected by his internment and recognized that the civilian internees were relatively comfortable in comparison to American Prisoners of War imprisoned by the Japanese.","Note written by Gillian Morton","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This forty page oral history interview transcript relates to Robert Mckay who was a student and interned by the Japanese at Baguio in the Philippine Islands during World War II.  The interview was conducted with McKay at a Baguio Internee reunion.

McKay, along with other Brent students and teachers, and hundreds of the Allied civilians of Baguio, gathered at Brent School to surrender to the Japanese on December 28.

His mother, Lucille Hall Butler, is a retired executive secretary, and her stories about Granite City during the Depression were the inspiration for his fifth novel,  Wabash  (1987).\n \tPlanning to major in theatre, Butler enrolled at Northwestern University in 1963. During his freshman year, he starred in four of the school's six major productions, but in his sophomore year, he concentrated his studies in oral interpretation and playwriting. He graduated with a B.S. (Summa Cum Laude) in June 1967 and attended graduate school at the University of Iowa, where he received an M.F.A. in playwriting in 1969.\n \tSuspecting that after graduate school he would be drafted for military service in Vietnam, he visited the army recruiter in Granite City and enlisted for three years. He was trained as a linguist and assigned in January 1971 to a counterintelligence unit in Vietnam. Within six months he was chosen to be the administrative assistant and interpreter for the American Foreign Service officer advising the mayor of Saigon. His experience in Vietnam was a strong influence in his novels.

Following the birth of their son, he rejoined  Electronic News  in Chicago. At the same time, he was asked by Fairchild to return to New York to start his own newspaper. From 1975 to 1985 he was editor in chief of  Energy User News , a weekly investigative business newspaper.\n \tButler began preparing himself for a writing career in 1979 by attending four consecutive semesters of advanced creative-writing courses taught by Anatole Broyard, an African-American writer and literary critic of the  New York Times , at the New School for Social Research. What followed was a period of prolific literary accomplishment. Butler wrote several collections of stories,  Tabloid Dreams ,  A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain , which won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and  Had a Good Time , based on his collection of antique picture post cards (Grove Press, August 2004). He published numerous novels, including  They Whisper  (Holt, 1994),  Tabloid Dreams  (Holt, 1996), and  Mr. Spaceman  (Grove, 2000).","He has also written screenplays for Hollywood's major studios, and his stories have been included in four annual editions of  The Best American Short Stories , seven annual editions of  New Stories from the South , and in numerous college literature textbooks.

His father, Robert Olen Sr., is a retired actor and former chairman of the theater department at Saint Louis University. His mother, Lucille Hall Butler, is a retired executive secretary, and her stories about Granite City during the Depression were the inspiration for his fifth novel,  Wabash  (1987).\n \tPlanning to major in theatre, Butler enrolled at Northwestern University in 1963. During his freshman year, he starred in four of the school's six major productions, but in his sophomore year, he concentrated his studies in oral interpretation and playwriting. He graduated with a B.S. (Summa Cum Laude) in June 1967 and attended graduate school at the University of Iowa, where he received an M.F.A. in playwriting in 1969.\n \tSuspecting that after graduate school he would be drafted for military service in Vietnam, he visited the army recruiter in Granite City and enlisted for three years. He was trained as a linguist and assigned in January 1971 to a counterintelligence unit in Vietnam. Within six months he was chosen to be the administrative assistant and interpreter for the American Foreign Service officer advising the mayor of Saigon. His experience in Vietnam was a strong influence in his novels. Butler left Vietnam in December 1971, and later stated in an interview in  People  Magazine that he was \"filled with the same sense of nostalgia, loss, and even aspiration that the Vietnamese in my stories feel.\"\n \tIn the early 1970s, Butler moved to New York City and became a reporter, and later editor, of  Electronic News , owned by Fairchild Productions. In 1973, Butler and his wife returned to Granite City, where he worked as a high-school substitute teacher and freelance writer for a year. Following the birth of their son, he rejoined  Electronic News  in Chicago. At the same time, he was asked by Fairchild to return to New York to start his own newspaper. From 1975 to 1985 he was editor in chief of  Energy User News , a weekly investigative business newspaper.\n \tButler began preparing himself for a writing career in 1979 by attending four consecutive semesters of advanced creative-writing courses taught by Anatole Broyard, an African-American writer and literary critic of the  New York Times , at the New School for Social Research. What followed was a period of prolific literary accomplishment. Butler wrote several collections of stories,  Tabloid Dreams ,  A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain , which won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and  Had a Good Time , based on his collection of antique picture post cards (Grove Press, August 2004). He published numerous novels, including  They Whisper  (Holt, 1994),  Tabloid Dreams  (Holt, 1996), and  Mr. Spaceman  (Grove, 2000).","He has also written screenplays for Hollywood's major studios, and his stories have been included in four annual editions of  The Best American Short Stories , seven annual editions of  New Stories from the South , and in numerous college literature textbooks. They have also appeared widely in such publications as  The New Yorker ,  Esquire ,  Harper's ,  The Atlantic Monthly ,  GQ ,  The Paris Review ,  The Hudson Review ,  The Virginia Quarterly Review ,  Ploughshares , and  The Sewanee Review .
