Robertson DaviesRobertson Davies was a literary fiction author, playwright, professor, and journalist. Often listed among Canada’s best authors, Davies was also known as one of the country’s distinguished “men of Letters,” a term he somehow detested. Aside from having over 80 distinct works to his name, this talented author left quite a mark in the education sector. For one, he founded the Master of Massey College and helped grow this graduate college. He was also a widely read professor who enjoyed passing his knowledge to the next generation.
