James gatz Obituary. James Gatz, better known as Jay Gatsby, was murdered in his pool in September of 1922. Gatsby was born in North Dakota to a farmer, Henry Gatz. Gatsby worked very hard during his life, partly for Dan Cody. He worked with Dan Cody for five years, and when Cody dies, he attended Oxford for a short period of time. Soon after, Gatsby joined the US Army's First Division during the war. Later, Gatsby worked with a man named Meyer Wolfsheim, whom some say led Gatsby to a fortune.
The narrator of The Great Gatsby is a young man from Minnesota named Nick Carraway. He not only narrates the story but casts himself as the bookâs author. He begins by commenting on himself, stating that he learned from his father to reserve judgment about other people, because if he holds them up to his own moral standards, he will misunderstand them.
