Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw (English: George Bernard Shaw, literally translated as George Bernard Shaw, July 26, 1856 - November 2, 1950), a British-Irish playwright, critic, debater and left-wing political activist, co-founder of the London School of Economics. In his early years, he made a living by writing music and literary criticism, and later became famous for writing plays. Bernard Shaw wrote more than 60 plays in his life and was good at exposing social issues in the form of black humor. In 1926, he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925 for "his idealistic and humanitarian works." Alan Lerner adapted his comedy "Pygmalion" into the musical "My Fair Lady". The musical was adapted into the Hollywood blockbuster movie of the same name and became a household name.
