No, F. Scott Fitzgerald was not a prominent figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Fitzgerald was a prominent American author known for his novels such as "The Great Gatsby," while the Harlem Renaissance was a cultural and artistic movement primarily involving African American artists, writers, and musicians centered in Harlem, New York City during the 1920s.
In "This Side of Paradise," F. Scott Fitzgerald illuminates the archetype of the "lost generation" through his use of characterization and setting. The protagonist, Amory Blaine, embodies the search for identity and purpose typical of the post-World War I generation. Fitzgerald's vivid descriptions of the post-war disillusionment and societal upheaval further highlight this archetype of a generation grappling with a sense of aimlessness and disconnection.
F. Scott Fitzgerald struggled most of his adult life with alcoholism. This impacted his health, relationships, and career.
When Charlie says he lost everything he wanted in the boom, he is referring to the period of the 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, when he was wealthy and successful but ultimately lost his family, reputation, and sense of self amidst the excesses and indulgences of the time. The "boom" symbolizes the economic prosperity and social transformation of the era, but for Charlie, it also represents a period of personal downfall and regret.
F. Scott Fitzgerald was married to Zelda Fitzgerald, who was an American novelist and socialite. They had a tumultuous relationship marked by highs and lows, and both influenced each other's work.

Francis Scott Fitzgerald, the author of the story in question, wrote:
This story was inspired by a remark of Mark Twain's to the effect that it was a pity that the best part of life came at the beginning and the worst part at the end.

Several weeks after completing it, I discovered an almost identical plot in Samuel Butler's "Note-books."

Benjamin Button: [Voice over; letter to his daughter] For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. I also thought these were very inspirational words!

According to an interview with Cate (found at http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/wned/news.newsmain?action=article&ARTICLE_ID=1451731): Q. You're not a dancer by trade, but is it true that you had some childhood dance instruction? A. "Yeah, I studied ballet, but also in drama school the most powerful training for me was the movement training. And look, if I had my way over again, I'd be a Butoh dancer (contemporary dance form originating in Japan), or I'd desperately try and finagle my way into working with (modern dance choreographer) 'Pina' Bausch. So, (in "Benjamin Button") I worked with Michelle Johnston, who was the choreographer."
