    Stephen Crane was an American author born in 1871 in Newark, New Jersey. He began writing at age 14 and had published important articles by age 16. He is considered one of the most innovative writers of his generation known for works of naturalism and impressionism. One of his most famous works is the short story "The Open Boat" based on his real-life experience as a newspaper correspondent when the ship he was traveling on to Cuba sank off the coast of Florida in high seas.
