J. M. Barrie (Author)
James Matthew Barrie was born in 1860 near Dundee in Scotland. He
was the son of a weaver. He was educated at Glasgow Academy,
Dumfries Academy and Edinburgh University. After working as a
journalist in Nottingham he went to London and wrote for various
newspapers and journals there. Between 1891 and 1902 Barrie
published several successful novels and plays. Peter Pan, his
greatest work, was first performed as a play in 1904. Although the
original idea for Peter Pan appeared in an earlier adult novel, The
Little White Bird, the full 'story' version for children was not
set down on paper until 1911. J. M. Barrie died in 1937.
"Intensely moving as well as enchanting in its evocation of
childhood, the heartlessness of youth and parental grief as
children grow older."
"-- Daily Telegraph"
