Need suggestions

I am going back to college next semester to study English and I am looking for a list of great American writers(I didn't go to school in the States moved here when I was 21)so I am kind of lost looking around. Right now I am reading Tennesse Williams(love him)but will like a book or books that talk about American Literature. Any suggestions? Thanks, Celi

I am not sure what you are looking for but I hope this helps. http://www.americanwriters.org/ http://archive.ala.org/booklist/v99/001.html What kind of books are you looking into reading? Is there any type that you like more than others? I may have further suggestions.
