1856 - 1960 (aged 104)
Shaw was a world-renowned Irish author. Born in Dublin, he moved to London when he turned twenty. His first success was as a music and literary critic, but he was drawn to drama and authored more than sixty plays during his career. Typically his work is leavened by a delightful vein of comedy, but nearly all of it bears earnest messages Shaw hoped his audiences would embrace.
