Lawrence Dorr (1925 – December 7, 2014) was the nom de plume of Janos Shoemyen, a Hungarian-American author born in Budapest, Hungary. He escaped from his homeland during the Soviet occupation and endured an itinerant life in immediate post-war Europe. He tried first to emigrate to the UK and then the USA where he finally settled in Gainesville, Florida. He authored a number of short story collections including A Slow Soft River, A Bearer of Divine Revelation, and A Slight Momentary Affliction, which was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Three of his short stories appeared in the respected literary journal, The Virginia Quarterly Review.
