Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 — July 2, 1961) was an American novelist, short-story writer, an journalist. He was part of the 1920s expatriate community in Paris, and one of the veterans of World War One later known as 'the Lost Generation', a term Gertrude Stein used according to his posthumous memoir A Moveable Feast. ("'That's what you are. That's what you all are,' Miss Stein said. 'All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.'" Stein had overheard a garage owner use the phrase to criticize a mechanic.) He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 for The Old Man and the Sea, and the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954.
