My favourite writer is Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. In my opinion, he is the greatest Russian playwrite and short-story writer. Some people are never tired of reading and rereading his plays and humorous stories.
Chekhov was born in 1860 in Taganrog. In 1879 he went to Moscow, where he studied medicine. Though he practised little as a doctor in his lifetime, he was prouder of his medical knowledge more than of his writing talent.
While in college, Chekhov wrote humorous sketches for comic papers to support his family. He collected the best ones into a volume, Motley Stories, in 1886. The book attracted the attention of the publisher of the modern magazine Novoje Vremja and Chekhov was asked to contribute stories there regularly.
Chekhov managed to develop a style of his own. Though he never gave up writing comic stories, he began writing plays. In 1887 "Ivanov", his first play, showed Chekhov to be a good playwrite.
From then on, he concentrated on writing plays, as well as short stories.
