Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751 - 1816) playwright and orator, was born in Dublin. His masterpiece, The School for Scandal, was produced in 1777; equally brilliant in dialogue and in invention, it was an immediate and lasting success. Sheridan turned to politics in 1780 and sat in Parliament for thirty-two years. He was a friend of Burke and Fox, but despite his brilliance as an orator, which held the house enthralled, he secured only minor appointments in government.
