O. Henry was the pen name of William Sydney Porter (1862-1910), an American writer of outstanding short stories, known for their wit, wordplay, warm characterization and surprise endings.

Johnsy believes that when the last leaf falls, she will die. Her friend, Sue, and old Mr. Behrman, the artist who lives downstairs, try to talk her out of this dangerous notion....
