John Grisham
A former small-town civil attorney-turned-author of best-selling pulp suspense novels involving the legal profession, John Grisham became a bestseller after publishing only his second novel, The Firm (1991), which was adapted into a successful 1993 thriller starring Tom Cruise. Incredibly prolific - he wrote at least one novel per year - Grisham centered most of his fiction in the legal world, depicting different facets of the law and his attorney characters in different novels. Meanwhile, his books were eagerly adapted into popular movies, including "The Pelican Brief" (1993), "The Client" (1994) and "A Time to Kill" (1996). Grisham was a prolific author whose works were consumed by millions every year.
