This
is also the guy who created a famous, often-used grammar book!
Today's
birthday honoree is named Elwyn Brooks White, but all his books give
his name as E. B. White. His grammar book is The
Elements of Style,
but most people call it “Strunk and White” (he was a co-author
with some fellow named William Strunk). I never knew it was the same
“White” as the beloved children's author until today!
