O'Henry: 1862-1910
O'Henry is a well-known American short-story writer. He had to
earn his living from the age of fifteen and he educated himself with the help of friends.
O'Henry knew people very well, especially the ordinary people of New York. In his stories you can feel satirical criticism of the American way of life. Most of his short stories are full of warm sympathy for ordinary American people.
O'Henry was the penname used by author William Sydney Porter. Porter was a great admirer of another American writer, Edgar Allan Poe, and he was influenced by Poe's style. O'Henry wrote many popular stories and earned a reputation as the master of surprise endings. He was especially talented at developing his characters, and at portraying city life accurately. He wrote over 600 stories.
