The novel received wide acclaim and was adapted into a film in 2014. Later, his brief student chaplaincy became the basis for The Fault in Our Stars, his sixth novel, which he published in 2012. After graduating in 2000, he briefly enrolled in the University of Chicago’s Divinity School and intended to become a chaplain he never actually attended classes because he decided over the course of his time working with child hospital patients that he wanted instead to be a novelist. Green attended Kenyon College in Ohio, which is known for its robust creative writing program. His time at a boarding school outside Birmingham, Alabama, has informed some of his fiction, which he has largely written for a young adult audience. John Green was born in Indianapolis but spent most of his childhood in Orlando, Florida.
