Jim Corder (1929-1998) was a Professor of English at Texas Christian University. In addition to his work on rhetorical studies he wrote creative nonfiction books such as Lost in West Texas (1988), Chronicle of a Small Town (1989), and Yonder: Life on the Far Side of Change (1992). Remembered for his use of figurative language and personal experiences in his writings, Corder pushed the boundaries of typical academic writing.
