Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was arts, maar werd vooral bekend als schrijver. Zijn verhalen over de intelligente, enigszins verwaande detective Sherlock Holmes, immer bijgestaan door zijn trouwe vriend Dr. Watson, zijn al tientallen jaren populair.
Naast detectives schreef Doyle ook historische romans, toneelstukken, poëzie en non-fictie. Toch waardeerde het grote publiek hem vooral om zijn detectives.
