Suetonius

Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, known as Suetonius, was a Roman writer born around AD 69, probably in North Africa, into a family of the equestrian class; his father was a military officer. He was educated at a time when schools of rhetoric flourished in Rome. He was a friend of the writer and senator Pliny the Younger, who described him as quiet, studious and dedicated to writing. Under the emperors Trajan and Hadrian he held important posts at the imperial court in Rome: he directed the imperial archives and, under Hadrian, became the emperor's secretary. A later, often unreliable source says he was dismissed around 122. His best-known work, The Lives of the Twelve Caesars, tells the lives of Julius Caesar and the first eleven emperors, from Augustus to Domitian. It mixes public deeds with personal details, habits and gossip, which have made it lively reading and a much-used, if not always reliable, source. He also wrote many other works, including lives of famous writers, of which only parts survive. He died sometime after 122.
