The movie "Field of Dreams" featured a reclusive author (played by James Earl Jones). The movie was based on a book called "Shoeless Joe" by W. P. Kinsella. In the book, the narrator/author has always been struck by the fact that a character with his name has a cameo in Catcher In The Rye. In the book, the reclusive author is actually J. D. Salinger. I understand it was changed in the movie due to legal issues.
