From Quiz Lost in Time: GHM
Answer:
William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare (est. 1564-1616) is one of the most influential literary figures in history. Born in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway when he was very young, at 18. Shakespeare wrote numerous renowned plays, such as "Hamlet", "Macbeth", "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "As You Like It", "Othello" and most notably, "Romeo and Juliet". Shakespeare usually wrote comedies (plays with a happy ending, usually marriage) or tragedies (plays that usually end in death.) These works are recognized for conveying universal and timeless feelings, emotions and themes. Shakespeare also wrote many sonnets and poems throughout his lifetime, and is credited with coming up with a great part of the English language.
"OMG" stands for "oh my God", and it is frequently used to communicate surprise.
