Editor's Take:

That experience shaped his lifelong interest in family and morality. His novel La Dame aux Camélias, about a doomed Paris courtesan, drew on his own love affair. As a play it was a huge success. Verdi turned it into the opera La Traviata. He went on to write social dramas about marriage and money.

Alexandre Dumas fils (French:; 27 July 1824 – 27 November 1895) was a French author and playwright, best known for the romantic novel La Dame aux Camélias (The Lady of the Camellias, usually titled Camille in English-language versions), published in 1848, which was adapted into Giuseppe Verdi's 1853 opera La traviata…
