His adventurous life was as rebellious and noteworthy as his writings, making him a celebrity as famous for his exploits as for his writing. It was a life of warring, bull fighting, woman chasing, drinking, big-game hunting and fishing that was romanticized during his lifetime as well as now. A member of the post-war Lost Generation, he married four times and witnessed and wrote about both world wars and the Spanish Civil War. Obsessed with death and living with grace under pressure, Hemingway died by his own hand at age 61.
