Arthur Conan Doyle
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a Scottish writer and physician, best known as the creator of Sherlock Holmes, the legendary detective whose logic and deduction skills revolutionized crime fiction.
Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Doyle studied medicine but found success in writing. His first Holmes novel, "A Study in Scarlet" (1887), introduced the world to Holmes and Dr. Watson. The character became a global icon through stories like "The Hound of the Baskervilles" and "The Adventure of the Speckled Band."
Beyond detective fiction, Doyle wrote historical novels, science fiction, and supernatural tales. Later in life, he became a passionate advocate for spiritualism. His influence on detective fiction remains unparalleled, shaping the genre for generations.
