Mark Twain (born Samuel Langhorne Clemens on November 30, 1835) is one of America’s greatest authors and humorists. He was celebrated in his time, and despite being frequently banned, is still read on campuses today. Of “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” Ernest Hemingway said, “…all American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.”
