Dr. Seuss

He was born Theodor Seuss Geisel in Springfield, Massachusetts on March 2, 1904. He died September 24, 1991. His childhood was stricken by prohibition, and filled with activist activities. He wrote Jack O' Latern, which was the first time he used the pen name, Dr. Seuss. He was sent to Oxford to do a fellowship program because he lied and said that he was going to be sent to Oxford. Helen told him he should become an artist, and he did, as well as her husband. He turned to children's books when he returned from war.
