Stephen Crane (1871–1900) was an American writer and journalist known for his realistic, naturalistic, and impressionistic storytelling. Though he died young, his works left a lasting impact on American literature.

His most famous novel, "The Red Badge of Courage" (1895), is a groundbreaking Civil War tale that explores the psychological struggles of a young soldier. He also wrote "Maggie: A Girl of the Streets", a gritty depiction of urban poverty, and many short stories, including "The Open Boat."

As a war correspondent, Crane covered conflicts in Greece and Cuba, bringing realism to his writing. His bold, innovative style influenced later writers like Hemingway, securing his place as a pioneer of modern American fiction.
