Frank Harris, Irish Author and Publisher

Frank Harris (February 14, 1856 - August 26, 1931) was an editor, journalist and publisher, who was friendly with many well-known figures of his day.

Though he attracted much attention during his life for his irascible, aggressive personality, editorship of famous periodicals, and friendship with the talented and famous, he is remembered mainly for his multiple-volume memoir My Life and Loves, which was banned in countries around the world for its sexual explicitness. He died in 1931, of a heart attack, at the age of 75.
