John Steinbeck
Steinbeck's documented immersion in the communities he wrote about - living in migrant camps to research The Grapes of Wrath - and his consistent use of fiction to establish an honest record of economic suffering that official accounts suppressed, reflect a Trust orientation in which the writer's primary obligation is fair witness.

George Orwell
Orwell is also listed under SAJF but his commitment to institutional transparency - his explicit arguments for plain English as a democratic tool, his belief that clarity in writing reflects clarity of intention - reflect a Trust orientation applied to political communication.
