Inspiration for Gandalf - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

07-12-2004, 04:38 PM

I was recently involved in a pub quiz and the question was asked "Which real person was the inspiration behind / for Gandalf?" The allegedly correct answer (or the one the MC had) was CS Lewis. This did not seem correct to me, but some (brief) searching on the matter has yielded nothing. Can anyone help?
