About Twain

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 — April 21,
1910), better known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an
American humorist, satirist, writer, and lecturer. Twain is most
noted for his novels Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which
has since been called the Great American Novel, and The Adventures
of Tom Sawyer. He is also known for his quotations.
During his lifetime, Clemens became a friend to presidents,
artists, leading industrialists, and European royalty. Clemens
enjoyed immense public popularity, and his keen wit and incisive
satire earned him praise from both critics and peers. American
author William Faulkner called Twain "the father of American
literature." Source: Wikipedia
