December 2011 (EST) Washington Irving (1783-1859) was a nineteenth-century American diplomat [1] and fiction writer, best known for his story The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the shorter Rip Van Winkle.

He has been called the "Father of the Short Story." He was "first among American writers to obtain universal recognition abroad." [2] When he was 26, his 17-year-old fiancée died. [3] He spent 17 years in Europe. [4]

  • Irving ... loved to write historical fiction under the guise of history. His misrepresentations of the history of early New York City and of the life of Washington were topped by his history of Christopher Columbus. [1]
