Shakespeare was an English play writer and poet and lived from 1564 to 1616.He was born in Stratford-Avon-in Warwickshire and was baptized on 26th April 1564. It is thought that no paintings of Shakespeare were painted when he was alive so we can’t be sure what he looked like, but we do know that he spent his acting career with Lord Chamberlain’s Company.
His family:- Shakespeare married a woman in 1582 named Anne Hatheway who was a daughter of a farmer.In a year’s time after their marriage they had a baby daughter, and then later in 1585 they had twins and all lived happily ever after.
