Samuel Beckett
Samuel Beckett was born in a suburb of Dublin in 1906. He came from a Protestant, Anglo-Irish background. He went to the Portora Royal School, the same school attended by Oscar Wilde, in Northern Ireland at the age of 14. He studied at Trinity College, where he received his bachelor’s degree and became a teacher for a brief period of time. In his youth he would periodically experience severe depression keeping him in bed until mid-day, and this experience influenced his writing later on.
