詹姆斯·巴里。英国小说家,剧作家。他生于英国东部苏格兰(现安格斯郡)农村一个织布工人之家。自幼酷爱读书写作。1882年在爱丁堡大学毕业后,在诺丁从事新闻工作两年。1985年(此时他已25岁),他移居伦敦,当自由投稿的新闻记者,开始创作反映苏格兰人生活的小说和剧本。1919-1922年任圣安德鲁斯大学校长。1928年当选为英国作家协会主席。1930-1937年受聘为爱丁堡大学名誉校长。他的小说属于“菜园派”,擅长以幽默和温情的笔调描述苏格兰农村的风土人情。最著名的是幻想剧彼得·潘(1904),另外尚有社会喜剧和熔幻想剧与社会喜剧于一炉的剧作多种。他一生为孩子们写了许多童话故事和童话剧,而彼得·潘则是他的代表作,其影响最大。巴里迁居伦敦后,住在肯辛顿公园附近,每天上下班都从那儿路过。一天,他看见有几个小孩子在草地上玩耍,他们用树枝盖小屋,用泥土做点心,还扮作童话中的仙女和海盗。这游戏吸引了那位黑胡子的作家。他站在一旁笑嘻嘻地看着。后来,一个胆大点的孩子问他愿不愿意跟他们一起玩,于是黑胡子作家高高兴兴地加入孩子们的游戏,一直玩到天黑。在回家的路上,巴里才发现原来这些孩子都是他的邻居,其中最活跃的那个男孩叫彼得。后来,孩子们从家长那里听说巴里是个作家,他正在写一个剧本,叫彼得·潘,便把他围住,要他讲彼得·潘的故事。等巴里讲完,他们才知道自己一个个都在故事里了。后来,巴里把这些小朋友都称为他创作的合作者。彼得·潘公演时,孩子们每人还分到五个便士的稿费呢!彼得·潘在伦敦公演后,在观众中引起很大轰动。后来,又把它改为童话故事,并被译成多种文学传到国外。以彼得·潘故事为内容的连环画,纪念册,版画,邮票等风行欧美各国。自从彼得·潘被搬上银幕,每年圣诞节,西方各国都在电视上播放这个节目,作为献给孩子们的礼物。
