| description | The article examines the American period of V.I. Ryndzyun's life and his work as an American writer and journalist. Vladimir Ryndzyun began publishing in Russia before the Revolution, and in the early 1920s he became famous under the pen-name “A. Vetlugin” thanks to publications in Russian émigré newspapers and books published in Paris and Berlin. He arrived in the USA in 1923 with Sergey Yesenin and Isadora Duncan and decided to stay there. He contributed to American journalism and American cinema as Voldemar Vetluguin, and to American literature as Frederick Van Ryn. In the fall of 1933, his essay “There's No Repealing Tastes”, signed with the pen-name Frederick Van Ryn was published in the first issue of Esquire magazine along with the works of Ernest Hemingway, John Dos Passos, Erskine Caldwell, etc. In 1934 he became an editor of RedBook Magazine as Voldemar Vetluguin. In 1936 he started to contribute in this pulp fiction magazine as Frederick Van Ryn as if he decided to separate his work as an editor and his literary works. Under the name of Frederick Van Ryn, he also collaborated with other magazines: a number of his publications appeared in the 1940s in Liberty; all of them have to do with cinema. His new pen-name made it possible for him to develop the author’s strategy in the USA, but in general it fits into the system of author’s masks / projections, which are typical for V.I. Rynzdyun’s / Voldemar Vetluguin’s works and self-fashioning. |
