John Ronald Reuel Tolkien CBE (January 3, 1892 – September 2, 1973) is best known as the author of The Hobbit and its sequel The Lord of the Rings.

In addition to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien's published works includes The Silmarillion and other books about what he called a legendarium, fictional histories and other essays about an imagined world called Middle-earth. Most of these works were compiled from Tolkien's notes by his son Christopher Tolkien. The enduring popularity and influence of Tolkien's works have established him as the "father of modern fantasy literature". Tolkien's other published fiction includes adaptations of stories originally told to his children.
