E.B. White was born Elwyn Brooks White in 1899. He was born in Mount Vernon, New York. His father was a successful piano manufacturer.
E.B. White went to Cornell University and graduated in 1921. He worked as a re- porter for various newspapers, and in 1924 returned to New York to work on the new New Yorker magazine. He married the magazine’s literary editor, Katherine Sergeant Angell, in 1929. E.B. White wrote for the magazine and other publications, mostly for adults.
In 1945, he wrote his first children’s book, Stuart Little. This book is about a mouse and all his adventures with a human family. Charlotte’s Web was published in 1952. This book is a story about a friendship between a young pig and a spider. In 1970, E. B. White wrote another children’s book The Trumpet of the Swan. This book is about a boy named Sam, and his love of nature, and of a swan born without a voice. Sam and Louis first meet in a pond in Canada, and the story continues with Louis’ attempts to learn to read and write.
E. B. White continued to write essays for adults until his death in 1985. Children and adults have made his children’s books classic. They are enjoyed as much today as when they were written.
