Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910) was a human who lived on Earth during the 19th and 20th centuries. Better known as Mark Twain, he was one of the most noted American authors of this time period.
Samuel Clemens met several members of the crew of the USS Enterprise-D in 1893 when several of them were transported back to that year. Clemens followed them back to the year 2369, where he was given a tour of the Enterprise by Deanna Troi, and convinced his pessimism about the future of the human race was unfounded. Clemens returned to 1893 to help Picard return to the 24th century, and to settle their accounts in the past. When Picard told Clemens that he wished he could've gotten to him better, Clemens said who he was was in his books. (TNG episode: "Time's Arrow, Part II")
At a student "meet-and-greet" at Starfleet Academy, Cadet Elizabeth Shelby, upon seeing all the Academy uniforms, found herself reminded of a Twain quotation: "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society". (NF novel: Stone and Anvil)
Jake Sisko read several of Clemens' works as a pre-teen. He was especially fond of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, so much so, that his father Benjamin called him "Huckleberry". (DS9 novelization: "Emissary")
Mark Twain (November 30, 1835 — April 21, 1910) was the pen name of Samuel Clemens, a satirist known for his wit and his travelings. He wrote Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which many consider to be the Great American Novel, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
Around 1867, he fought Ravage.

While living in San Francisco, Mark Twain befriended other writers of his day, such as Jules Verne. At great expense, Mark Twain hired a ferry to take him and Verne out into the middle of San Francisco Bay to witness Tobias Muldoon's new invention, a "sub-marine". However, a technical mishap plunged the sub-marine to the bottom of the bay, a misfortune that brought laughter from Twain, Verne, and the ferry's skipper. Hearts of Steel issue 1
While at the estate of Muldoon's investor, Stanford Merriweather, Muldoon suddenly returned, pursued by the Decepticon Ravage. Due to Muldoon's bravery, he was able to shepherd everyone out of the house. Twain, in the meantime, had intentionally left a gas leak. Tossing his cigar into the house, it exploded, sending a singed Ravage off into the distance. Hearts of Steel issue 3
Ultimately, Mark Twain teamed up with Muldoon, Merriweather and his daughter Kitty, steel-drivin' man John Henry, and the Autobots to defeat the Decepticons and their impressive locomotive engineering feat, the Astrotrain. Hearts of Steel issue 4
