Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (1896–1940) was an American essayist, novelist, screenwriter, and short-story writer, although he was best known for his novels depicting the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age—a term which he coined. During his lifetime, he published 4 novels, 4 collections of short stories, as well as 164 short stories in magazines. Although he temporarily achieved popular success and fortune in the 1920s, Fitzgerald only received wide critical and popular acclaim after his death. He is now widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.
