Hemingway was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prizefor Literature.

Upon his graduation in 1917, Hemingwayworked six months as a reporter for The Kansas City Star. He used the newspaper’s style guide as a foundation for his writing. "Use short sentences. Use short first paragraphs. Use vigorous English. Bepositive, not negative." Later, The Star named Hemingway its top reporter for the last hundred years.
Unable to pass the physical examination due to poor vision, Hemingway could not join the UnitedStates Army as his father had hoped. Instead, he chose the Red Cross Ambulance Corps and served on the Italian front. One of his first short stories entitled, A Natural History of the Dead was writtenafter witnessing the brutalities of war.
