Harper Lee's neighbor was Truman Capote, the acclaimed author of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "In Cold Blood." They grew up together in Monroeville, Alabama, and shared a close friendship during their childhood. Their relationship influenced both of their literary works, with Lee drawing inspiration from their shared experiences in the South. Capote's character Dill in "To Kill a Mockingbird" is often seen as a reflection of his childhood self.
