Edgar Rice Burroughs is born on September 1 1875, in Chicago, Illinoi. As a seller of pencil sharpener, he was always looking through magazines to spot adds for his sharpener's. He read many storys in those magazines as he look through them. He knew that he could write even better tails than the ones he read in those magazines! Some of Burroughs' famous works include Tarzan of the apes and The Land That Time Forgot.
