Ernest Hemingway, American journalist, novelist and short-story writer, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, was one of the earliest modernist authors to emerge from the 1920s.  He was born in Oak Park, Illinois, where he was educated, with life perspective later formed by his service as an ambulance drive in the Spanish Civil War, and adventures as a journalist in World War I.  He was also an avid hunter and fisherman.  He was associated with F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald while living as an ex-patriate in Paris, France throughout the early 1920s.  His most significant novels are THE SUN ALSO RISES, FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS and THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA.
