Dame Agatha Mary Clarissa, Lady Mallowan, DBE (15 September 1890 – 12 January 1976), commonly well-known as Agatha Christie, was an English crime fiction author of novels, brief stories and plays. She furthermore wrote romance novels under the name Mary Westmacott, but is ideal remembered for her 80 detective novels and her lucrative West End theatre plays. Her functions, especially featuring detectives Hercule Poirot or Miss Jane Marple, have provided her the title the 'Queen of Crime' and produced her among the most crucial and innovative writers in the development of the genre.
