Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, often celebrated as the Brothers Grimm, were German scholars and folklorists born in the late 18th century. Jacob was born in 1785, and Wilhelm followed in 1786. They are best known for their collection of fairy tales, which includes beloved stories like "Cinderella," "Hansel and Gretel," and "Snow White."
