Born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, Carroll was an Anglican clergyman,
photographer, and mathematician before he began writing his fanciful
children's books. "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," easily his most
famous work, was written to entertain young Alice Liddell and her two
sisters Lorina and Edith. During his career, he also wrote many
mathematical papers and treatises under his real name. He is also
considered one of the best photographers of the Victorian era.
