George Peele

George Peele (1548-1597) was an English dramatist, of the Elizabethan period, born in London. He was author of "Arraignment of Paris" and "David and Bathsabe," full of passages of poetic beauty. He has been charged with having led the life of a debauchee and to have died of a disease brought on by his profligacy, but it is now believed he has been maligned.
