         Henrik Ibsen was born on March 20, 1828, in Skien, Norway. He was the oldest of 5 children to Knud and Marichen Ibsen.  At the age of 8 years old the family became poverty stricken when his fathers business had failed and the family sold all there things and moved to a small farm outside of town. There Henrik spent a lot of his time getting into magic and reading. When Henrik was 15 he left school and started to work as a apprentice in a apothecary for 6 years using his spare time writing poetry and painting and in 1849 he wrote his first play Catilina.
          In  1862 after writing "Loves Comdey" he settled for Italy for a time where he wrote another play Brand which made him famous in Scandanavia. This launched his career and when he wrote "A Dolls House" in 1879 he became more well know. Later in his years he set back for Norway , his home where in the 1900`s suffering series of strokes until his death 1906. I think his work "A Dolls House" was suppose to relate back to hi childhood when he was still trying to figure out how and what he was gonna be.
