Playwright Bio
Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth and spent most of his childhood in London and Kent. His first novel, The Pickwick Papers (1836-1837), was published in monthly serial installments and became an instant hit. In 1843, he published A Christmas Carol, one of the most popular Christmas stories of all time. Dickens was a prolific writer, and his later works are regarded as his finest by critics. Some of these include Bleak House (1852-1853), Great Expectations (1860-1861), Oliver Twist (1837-1839), and A Tale of Two Cities (1859). Dickens is buried in Westminister Abbey.
