James Gatz, better known by his fantasy title Jay Gatsby, is the titular character in F. Scott Fitzgerald's most famous work The Great Gatsby. A self-made businessman (who started off poor) made his wealth in bootlegging in order to impress Daisy Buchanan with his great wealth in hope that she would be his again. Gatsby's character also became a character archetype when describing a self-made man who dreams of wealth and social status and he also became the inspiration for other wealthy characters with mysterious pasts. Unlike Tom Buchanan, he isn't very outright villainous and is more of an anti-hero due to the process with how he gets his money.
