Sigal, Clancy (1926– ), American writer and journalist, was born in Chicago and educated at the University of California. He lived in England for some thirty years, from the 1950s; Zone of the Interior (US 1976) is set in England, as is Weekend in Dinlock (1960), a fictionalized exploration of life in a mining community in South Yorkshire, to which the American narrator is introduced by a young miner who is also an artist. Going Away (1963) is a first-person ‘road’ novel: here the narrator leaves Hollywood and drives across the US in search of his lost idealism, embarking in the last pages for Europe. He now lives and writes in California.
