Yeah, uh I know he is a poet...though why is he so known? and what's something he has written? j/w
 
Remember the first tree house of horror. The one where Homer is hiding outside the tree house listening. Well the poem Lisa reads called "The Raven" is by Edgar Allen Poe. Then there is the episode called "Lisa's rival" where she makes the diorama of the story the "tell tale heart" also by Edgar Allen Poe. Check him out on wikipedia he led a interesting and depressing life which ended under suspicious circumstances.
 
He was an important 19th century American author and poet. His works, for the most part, didn't become well known until after his mysterious death.

He influenced many later authors and poets.

Some of his most famous horror stories were "The Fall of the House of Usher" and ""The Cask of Amontillado" and "The Tell-tale Heart."

Some of his most famous poems are "The Raven" and "Annabel Lee" and "Ulalume".
