早年生活
莫里斯·桑達克生於美國紐約布魯克林,雙親皆為波蘭猶太籍移民,而父親是一名裁縫。[1][2][3] 桑達克形容自己的童年為「可怕的光景」,因為他的親戚死於猶太人大屠殺當中,讓年紀小小的他一早就已經體會到死亡。[4]早年他因健康問題長期卧床,卻培養了喜愛閱讀的習慣。[5]十二歲那年他看過了華特·迪士尼的幻想曲後,就志願要成為一位插圖家。而他第一份工作,就是為FAO施瓦茨玩具店設計櫥窗。 一九四七年,桑達克的插畫首次出版,出現在一本名為《Atomics for the Millions》的教科書,作者是Dr. Maxwell Leigh Eidinoff。一九五○年代,在桑達克開始寫自己的故事之前,他多數在為其他作者的童書畫插畫。
個人生活
桑達克曾在2008年9月於《紐約時報》上提及自己同性戀的身份,並跟他的伴侶心理分析家Eugene Glynn博士同居了五十年。他從未向自己父母出櫃,並說:「我只希望自己是異性戀,那我的父母就高興了;他們永遠、永遠、永遠不知道。」[6]
著作
桑達克在自寫自畫《野獸國》之後獲得國際聲譽。初出版時,這部描繪尖牙怪獸的作品使某些家長感到憂心,因為裡面的角色長相顯得相當荒誕。在《野獸國》之前,桑達克最知名的作品是為艾爾斯·敏納立克(E.H Minarik)的《小熊看世界》系列著作所畫的插畫。
當桑達克在Harper & Row公司編輯的桌上看到以撒·辛格第一篇兒童故事《山羊茲拉提》的稿件時,他主動表示要為這部作品畫插畫。這本書在一九六六年首次出版,獲得紐伯瑞獎。桑達克對於這次的合作感到愉快,有滿腔熱忱。他曾經以揶揄的口氣說他和辛格合作,「終於」讓他的父母對他們最小的孩子留下深刻印象。
桑達克的《廚房之夜狂想曲》(In the Night Kitchen)於一九七○出版,這部作品經常涉及審查議題,因為書中的小男孩在畫面中都是裸身走動著。這本書在美國好幾個州都遭到非議,包括伊利諾、紐澤西、明尼蘇達及德州。《廚房之夜狂想曲》經常出現在美國圖書館協會的「常禁書單」。在一九九○~一九九九年間一百本最常遭非議的書單當中名列第二十一。
一九八一年出版的《在那遙遠的地方》(Outside Over There),故事是關於一個叫做愛達(Ida)的女孩,探討她對於兄弟姐妹的嫉妒情結及其責任感。她的父親離家,愛達被留下來看顧妹妹,這使她相當失望。她妹妹遭小魔鬼(goblins,又譯作哥布林)綁架,愛達必須展開一段奇幻旅程去解救妹妹。一開始她並不真的渴望找到妹妹,在尋找的過程中,她受神奇的事物吸引,幾乎與妹妹擦身而過。最後,她救出妹妹,毀滅小魔鬼,返家並許諾在父親回家之前會擔起照顧妹妹的責任。
