Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898), better known by the pseudonym Lewis Carroll an English author, mathematician, logician and photographer. His most famous writing is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
During his early youth, young Dodgson was educated at home. In 1846, young Dodgson moved on to Rugby School, where he was evidently less happy.
He left Rugby at the end of 1849 and, after an interval that remains unexplained, went on in January 1851 to Oxford, attending his father's old college, Christ Church.
His early academic career veered between high promise and irresistible distraction. He did not always work hard, but was exceptionally gifted and achievement came easily to him. In 1852 he received a First in Honours Mathematics.

From a young age, Dodgson wrote poetry and short stories. Between 1854 and 1856, his work appeared in the national publications. In 1856 he published his first piece of work under the name that would make him famous. In 1856, Dodgson took up the new art form of photography.

Over the remaining twenty years of his life, throughout his growing wealth and fame, his existence remained little changed. He continued to teach at Christ Church until 1881, and remained in residence there until his death.
He died on 14 January 1898 at his sisters' home, "The Chestnuts" in Guildford, of pneumonia following influenza. He was 2 weeks away from turning 66 years old. He is buried in Guildford at the Mount Cemetery.
