I am sure Fitzgerald counted to 10... Then again, it didn't work for him, either!

F. Scott Fitzgerald was important in the time period of the 1920’s. He was known for a poet of the 20’s and was known for writing short stories about the life of a person in the 20’s. Fitzgerald is important because he knew the outside life of an average person in the 20’s. He also knew that one day, the people of the 20’s would collapse in depression and the rise of Hitler. Fitzgerald represents the opposite of theme 1: The Growth of Celebrity. He represents the opposite of this theme because all the authors where writing about how happy everyone is and how the economy changed while Fitzgerald looked at how the economy was going to collapse. Fitzgerald died of a heart attack at age 44, 1940
