George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950) was a popular Irish playwright and Nobel Laureate. A prominent political activist and ardent socialist, many of his writings deal with the prevailing social problems of his day. Shaw's blend of drama, comedy, and social commentary made him one of the most popular authors of his time, as well as the first person to win both a Nobel Prize for Literature and an Oscar (for the adaptation of his play Pygmalion).
