Mark Twain

The author spent his childhood in a little town next to the river Mississippi, and he left school when he was 12 years old. He was a typographer, a steamboat pilot, and a gold digger, before becoming the most famous American writer of his time.

BRAM STOKER

Mysterious and tormented: that's what we know about Bram Stoker, the creator of Dracula: And, indeed, that is how he must have beeen to imagine such a bloodthirsty creature. 104 years later, the author is perhaps not so well remembered but Dracula is certainly still as famous as ever. It's a case of a character that has "eliminated" its author!

DAVID GUETTA

The world's Number One DJ
French dance music was not a major export until David Guetta appeared. Meet the superstar DJ who's making the world dance.

David Guetta always wanted to mix music. At age 13, the French teenager mixed his first albums at home, and at 14 he started organize parties in his home. He thought: "I want to be a DJ - I don't need to be good at Maths!" In 1984, at only age 17, David got a job as a Dj in a club in Paris. He soon got a reputation for begin a good DJ with a talent for mixing music.

EARLY SUCCES
For David Guetta, the journey to international fame was slow. In 1996, he started to Dj in clubs on the Spanish island of Ibiza. then he released compilation albums of his club hits and started making his own records. Then he released compilation albums of his club hits and started making his own records. His to albums Just a Little More Love(2002) and Pop Life(2007)

INETRANATIONAL STAR
David has difficluty getting fans in the USA, however. This changed when David produced the hit single "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas in 2009. The same year, his own album,  One Love, was an international hit too. Suddenly, everyone wanted to work with him!

FRIENDS
Today, David's club night in Ibiza is famous around the world. He goes there on his private jet and stays in his luxury villa: it's the sort of place you see in a James bond film. That is because David is now a superstar DJ: he plays festivals to 80.000, earns more than 3 million euros year and makes albums featuring stars like Rihanna and Flor Rida.

BOB MARLEY FOREVER!

Jamaica's reggae legend.

Last year year was the 30th anniversary of the death of Bob Marley. But we will always remember him as the first superstar of Jamaica...

Bob Marley and the Wailers
Bob's mother was Afro-Jamaican and his father was white Jamaican English decent. bob left school at age 14 and started playing in a group called the Wailers. In their songs, they "wailed*" about the condition of Afro-Jamaicans.
They were very popular in Jamaica.

Reggae in the 1960s
Reggae was invented in Kingston, Jamaica, in the 1960s. Bob Marley created his own style of reggae. His songs make us want to dance, but they have a serious message: they talk about fighting for freeedom from oppression.

Success begins
In 1972, the Wailers recorded their first album, Caht a Fire, and toured Britian and the USA in 1973. They were the support act for another group. but the Wailers were fired after four shows: they were more popular than the main group.

No Woman, No Cry
In 1974, the original Wailers broke up, but Bob Marley countinued recordin with other musicians and kept the group's name. They had their first UK top 40 hit with the single "No waman, No Cry", in 1975. People everywhere loved reggae!

Rasta lifestyle
Bob Marley was a Rastafarian. this is a kind of religion or way of life. He was also vegetarian. You hear Bob's beliefs in the words of his songs.
Rastacap Bob Marley fans often wear a "rastacap", a crocheted cap also called a "tam".
