Provenance
This collection was donated by the author Larry Tye in 2011.
Biography
From 1986 to 2001, Tye was a reporter at the Boston Globe, where his primary beat was medicine. He
also served as the Globe’s environmental reporter, roving national writer, investigative reporter, and
sports writer. Before that he was the environmental reporter at the Courier-Journal in Louisville, and
covered government and business at the Anniston Star in Alabama.
Tye’s book, Satchel: The Life and Times of an American Legend, is the biography of two American
icons – Satchel Paige, arguably the greatest pitcher ever to throw a baseball, and Jim Crow, the amalgam
of Southern laws that mandated separation of the races everywhere from public bathrooms to schools
and buses. Satchel was on the New York Times bestseller list, was named a Times Notable Book, and
recently won two prizes – the Casey Award and the Seymour Medal – as best baseball book of 2009.

History
Leroy “Satchel” Paige was the most sensational pitcher ever to throw a baseball. During his years in the
Negro Leagues he fine-tuned a pitch so scorching that catchers tried to soften the sting by cushioning
their gloves with beefsteaks. His career stats — 2,000 wins, 250 shutouts, three victories on the same
day — are so eye-popping they seem like misprints. But bigotry kept big league teams from signing him
until he was forty-two, at which point he helped propel the Cleveland Indians to the World Series. Over
a career that spanned four decades, Satchel pitched more baseballs, for more fans, in more ballparks, for
more teams, than any player in history. Source: http://www.larrytye.com/books/satchel/
