Ian Fleming was a writer, journalist, and naval intelligence officer, but you probably know him as the creator of James Bond. Using his experience working for Britain Naval Intelligence during World War II, Fleming created literature’s most famous MI6 agent.

Starting in 1953, Fleming published a Bond story every year until his death in 1964, and his last two books were published posthumously.
