Theodore Herman Albert Dreiser (;[1] August 27, – December 28, ) was an American novelist and journalist of the naturalist school.
His novels often featured main characters who succeeded at their objectives despite a lack of a firm moral code, and literary situations that more closely resemble studies of nature than tales of choice and agency.[2] Dreiser's best known novels include Sister Carrie () and An American Tragedy
