John Ernst Steinbeck, Jr. was an American author of twenty-seven books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books, and five collections of short stories.

His best known works include The Grapes of Wrath, East of Eden, and Of Mice and Men. Not only was he an author, I'd dub him more aptly as an artist of the first degree: a craftsman!
