　　Samuel Langhorne Clemens （November 30，1835-April 21，1910）， better known by his pen name Mark Twain， was an American author and humorist. He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer （1876） and its sequel， Adventures of Huckleberry Finn （1885）， the latter often called "the Great American Novel." Twain grew up in Hannibal， Missouri， which provided the setting for Huckleberry Finn and TomSawyer. After an apprenticeship with a printer， he worked as a typesetter and contributed articles to his older brother Orion's newspaper. He later became a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River beforeheading west to join Orion in Nevada. He referred humorously to his singular lack of success at mining， turning to journalism for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise.Twain was born shortly after a visit by Halley's Comet， and he predicted that he would "go out with it，" too. He died the day following the comet's subsequent return. He was lauded as the "greatest American humorist of his age，" and William Faulkner called Twain "the father of American literature."'
