Death Be Not Proud was written by Johnny's father, John Gunther. He was one of the best-known and one of the most admired journalists of his day. He had a particular knack for gathering information and presenting it to others in an entertaining and easily understandable form.

Gunther's work is a compilation of the hopes and struggles that the other family went through during the illness. John used anecdotes and exact quotes to support his points and tell the whole story. Through these, he made the characters seem real to the reader.
