George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair was born June 25, 1903 in Bengal, India. Even when in school he was against authority and would rather read a fiction book than listening. Being a noncomformist started young for Orwell. George Orwell is most famous for his books Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm, which he published in the 1940's. His books bashed several governments, like British imperialism, facism, and soviety-style communism. He also degraded modern media as a tool for it's use of propaganda.

George Orwell is a pseudonym for Eric Arthur Blair. In the book Animal Farm most say it is based on George attacking Stalinism, yet he denied its relation. He did consider himself a "democratic socialist" though. In the dystopian Nineteen Eighty Four Orwell criticised the corruption of news media for propaganda and the English imperialism. Other than being famous for his two books, he was considered the greatest journalist of his time.On January 21st, 1950 Eric Blair died.
