Jack London (1876-1916) was one of the first American authors to gain international fame and accumulate wealth during his lifetime. Despite his popularity, London never received any literary awards for his work. London is remembered today through retellings of his stories on film and television, most recently as a movie adaptation of The Call of the Wild starring Harrison Ford.
