About the author
Born Samuel Langhorne Clemens in Missouri in 1835, he grew up in the river town of Hannibal, a place that later shaped much of his fiction. Before becoming famous as Mark Twain, he worked as a printer, journalist, and steamboat pilot, and that firsthand experience gave his writing its strong sense of place and voice.
He became one of the best-known writers in the United States through travel writing, lectures, essays, and novels. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn remain his most celebrated books, admired for their humor, memorable characters, and their vivid picture of American life.
Twain also wrote with a satirist's edge, often aiming at hypocrisy, greed, and social pretenses. He died in 1910, but his work has stayed central to American literature because it can be funny, restless, and unexpectedly serious all at once.
