John Webster
Died in 1634
John Webster was born around 1580, the son of a London coachmaker, and was probably admitted in 1598 to a law school in the city. He wrote first in collaboration with Dekker and Middleton, then alone, tragedies for the London companies. He was himself enrolled, by birth, in the Merchant Taylors' guild of which his father was a member, and almost nothing is known of his life outside these records. He died before 1634, perhaps around 1632.
