ERNEST HEMINGWAY

Ernest Hemingway was an American journalist, novelist, short-story writer, and sportsman from the 1910s to the 1960s. He produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s. Hemingway won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954, and published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two nonfiction works. Many are considered classics of American literature. Some of Hemingway's works (all of which listed here were adapted into films) include: The Old Man and the Sea, For Whom the Bell Tolls, The Sun Also Rises, Islands in the Stream, and A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway committed suicide in 1961 at the age of 61. Seven members of his family have also died by suicide.
