Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was a prolific American novelist and pulp writer. Born in Chicago, Burroughs attended local schools and briefly served in the U.S. Cavalry in the 1890s before being discharged for health reasons. He soon returned to Chicago where he married and began writing after noting the poor quality of much of the pulp literature popular at the time. In a career spanning more than forty years, Burroughs produced some of the most memorable characters in popular literature including Tarzan, John Carter, and many others.
