Short Story: The Gift of the Magi Author: O. Henry specialized in short stories with snapper endings - usually sardonic jokes on their protagonists. It is also much harder to translate to a screen feature, since O. Barry Moser is a member of the National Academy of Design and currently serves on both the art and religious departments of Smith College. Henrys 'The Gift of the Magi' is one of the two best-known secular Christmas stories - the other is, of course, Dickens 'A Christmas Carol'. Moser produced 232 illustrations and worked with a host of specialists to perfect the elements that make his edition of the Bible unique. Moser's edition of the King James Bible received international acclaim. Tide-mark's Barry Moser Desk Diary features a broader selection of art created throughout the course of his career. Moser's edition of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland won The American Book Award for design and illustration in 1983. As an illustrator, author, and designer, Barry Moser has worked on more than 250 books, including Moby Dick, Dante's Divine Comedy, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
