A. A. Milne (1882-1956) was an English author best-known as the creator of the beloved fictional character, Winnie-the-Pooh, that continues to captivate children around the world. He wrote two collections of stories about the popular teddy bear, Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner. The famous books about Pooh and his friends were inspired by Milne's son, Christopher Robin Milne's collection of stuffed animals that included a toy bear, pig, donkey, tiger and kangaroo. The third youngest son of London schoolteachers, as a boy he wrote poetry and short funny pieces for his school's paper. He studied at Cambridge but in 1903 left school to write, and before long, he became an editor at Punch Magazine. Milne served as a lieutenant in WWI and as captain in WWII. Before gaining fame as a children's book author, he had a thriving career as a playwright. A. A. Milne also wrote poetry, novels, his autobiography as well as political nonfiction.
