>>>I was going to say 'Fountainhead' by Ayn Rand, but my philosophy prof said there is no philosophy in that book.<<<

That is why I did not limit my definition of "philosopher" to the definitions used by philosophy professors working in academia. Most people have never read technical works on philosophy. But they have read a book or two, expressing some idea or other.

Ayn Rand certainly qualifies as a philosopher in the general world of ideas, because her novels were about ideas and concepts.
