I am doing a report and would like some authors that were great writers of the times between 1890-1969.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, more books sold than any other fiction writer, ever. Of course, that doesn't make him great, his greatness lies on his incredible talent, not how many books he sold.
Namely for Sherlock Holmes.

For that time period, you will probably see two names everywhere you look:
1. John Steinbeck: "The Grapes of Wrath" "East of Eden"
2. Ernest Hemingway
You might also see:
J. D. Salinger: "The Catcher in the Rye"
Upton Sinclair: "The Jungle" 1906
Harper Lee: "To Kill A Mockingbird" 1960

F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Wolfe, John Steinbeck, Robert Graves, Dylan Thomas, T.S. Eliot, Isaak Denison, Arthur Miller, Truman Capote, and Tennessee Williams.
I could go and on... oh, and William Faulkner!

Margaret Mitchell (Gone With the Wind), L.M. Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables Series), well that's all I can think of for now

Tiffany,
I would definantly choose Harper Lee because she wrote To Kill a Mockingbird and it is one of my favorite books ever.
BTW: This is your best friend!!! (You know who.)
