Fleming, Ian (Lancaster)(born May 28, 1908, London, Eng.—died Aug. 12, 1964, Canterbury, Kent) British suspense novelist. He worked as a Moscow journalist, banker, stockbroker, naval intelligence officer, and newspaper manager before publishing Casino Royale (1953), the first of 12 novels featuring James Bond, the stylish, high-living secret service agent 007, one of the most successful characters of 20th-century fiction. Packed with violent action, espionage, and sex, all 12 books—including From Russia, with Love (1957), Dr. No (1958), Goldfinger (1959), and Thunderball (1961)—became popular movies.
