Sophocles

Sophocles (c. 496-406 BC) was one of the greatest ancient Greek playwrights and one of the few Greek tragedians whose plays survived. Out of the more than 120 plays he authored, only seven—Ajax, Antigone, The Women of Trachis, Oedipus the King, Electra, Philoctetes, and Oedipus at Colonus—have complete texts.
