Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, was a prolific English author, humorist and scriptwriter. After being educated at Dulwich College, to which he remained devoted all his life, he was employed by a bank, but disliked the work and wrote magazine pieces in his spare time.

He also used the school setting in his short story collections, which started in 1903 with the publication of Tales of St. Austin's.
