About The Author

Wilhelm Grimm

Jakob Ludwig Grimm and Wilhelm Karl Grimm were born in Hanau, Germany, in 1785 and 1786, respectively. The brothers were part of a family of nine children who lived in the countryside. When their father died suddenly, the harsh circumstances the family endured greatly influenced the way the brothers Grimm eventually interpreted and wrote their tales.

At the University of Marburg, where they studied law, the brothers Grimm developed a love of folk poetry. Their first volume of fairy tales, Children’s and Household Stories, was published in 1812. This collection of stories, told to them by peasants and villagers, was created as a collaborative effort: Jakob did the research behind the stories, and Wilhelm crafted them for children.
