Austrian writer Stefan Zweig was one of the most prolific and popular European authors in the years before World War II. He wrote plays, poetry, and fiction, but his most popular works were highly fictionalized biographies of well-known historical figures. His central themes were nostalgia and humanism.

A native of Vienna, Zweig lived in Salzburg following World War I. He married his first wife, Friderike Zweig (née Burger), in 1920, and they divorced in 1938. He married Charlotte ("Lotte") Elisabeth Altmann in 1939. Zweig emigrated to England some time before 1938 and became a British citizen in 1940. In that same year he traveled to the U.S. and then on to South America, settling in Brazil. In 1941 he visited the U.S. again. He and his second wife committed suicide in Brazil, in Feb. 1942. Zweig had known Franz Werfel since at least 1917, when they served together in the Military Press Bureau in Vienna during World War I. He was a good friend of both Franz and Alma Mahler.
