Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French novelist, poet and playwright. He and H. G. Wells are both often called the father of science fiction. Working with the publisher Pierre-Jules Hetzel, he wrote the Voyages extraordinaires, a run of bestselling adventure novels that sent readers to the center of the earth, under the ocean and around the globe. Journey to the Center of the Earth, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas and Around the World in Eighty Days remain his most famous books. Radio dramatists took up those journeys as well, with Around the World in Eighty Days and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea both heard in Radio Days.
