Hmm..well my original hunch was Stephen King, but he only got 20%. 55% is a decent margin and I'm not really sure, so I'll trust the audience and go with B, Aldous Huxley, Final Answer.

Stephen King did not write 'Brave New World.' He wrote 'The Shining' and 'Carrie.' George Orwell did not write 'Brave New World.' The writer of 'Brave New World' was Aldous Huxley you've won $12,500.
*audience applauds*
You still have 2 lifelines. You can walk away with the $12,500. If you give me the wrong answer you drop back down to $5,000. Here is your $15,000 question.
9. Which of these actors turned 100 on December 9, 2016?
