William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare, the well-known playwright, was born April 23, 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon, England.
His birthplace on Henley Street has become a tourist attraction.
His father, John and mother, Mary also had 4 other children: 3 boys and 1 girl.
The Shakespeare family lived a moderately wealthy life until 1576, when political difficulties took away John's job and the family's home.
At this time, William Shakespeare left home and travelled to London.
