Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) Today, nearly seventy years after his death, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is universally associated with his most popular literary creation, Sherlock Holmes. In fact, the hyper-rational detective is such an enduring character in western literature that he and his creator have practically become one in the popular imagination. People are inevitably surprised, then, to find out that the real Conan Doyle was a far more complex man, one whose fervent belief in Spiritualism dominated the final dozen years of his life. Arthur Conan Doyle, born into a large Catholic family in Edinburgh, Scotland, received most of his education from the Jesuits. But by the time he enrolled at the University there to study medicine, Conan Doyle had rejected Catholicism and Christianity in general. In 1882 he joined a medical practice in Plymouth, but after quarreling with his partner, opened his own practice in Southsea. There, in the mid-1880s, several important developments occurred: he married, began studying psychic phenomena, and started spending more time writing. Sherlock Holmes debuted in 1887 in "A Study in Scarlet," and in a short time proved so popular that Conan Doyle felt compelled to "kill" him in "The Final Problem," published in 1893. Recognizing early on that his creation might become a kind of straitjacket, Conan Doyle worked hard to distance himself from Holmes and indulge his many other interests. After a séance in which he believed he had been contacted by his son Kingsley, who had died in the War, Conan Doyle became a leader of the movement, defending it in lectures around the world. Even the embarrassing Cottingley fairy hoax, in which he had championed faked photographs of wood fairies and goblins that werelater revealed as fakes, did not deter him. "The Elusive American," on the other hand, thought he knew trickery when he saw it, and set out to punish those taking advantage of a vulnerable public. That their friendship lasted for several years is largely due to the fact that Houdini, always seeking intellectual respectabilty, deliberately hid his real feelings about Spititualism from the noted man of letters.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Biographical notes by Blake Wilfong "My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere.... I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation." British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) is best known for his numerous Sherlock Holmes detective stories. Indeed, Sherlock Holmes has far outlived his creator; modern writers continue to use the character in new stories, including science fiction. Doyle's own best-known science fiction work is his 1912 novel The Lost World , in which explorers encounter living dinosaurs on a South American plateau. He also wrote several lesser-known science fiction novels and short stories. Some of his tales reflected his belief in psychic phenomena and the occult, especially spiritualism. After an unsuccessful start as a physician, Doyle achieved wealth and fame with his writing. He left the medical profession in 1890 to write full time, and was knighted in 1902.
