Agatha Caulfield is a fictional character in the Hey Arnold! TV Series.
She was the author of Arnold's favorite books, who lived alone on Elk Island. Despite her success of writing for fifty years, she eventually ran out of things to write about and began to lose confidence in herself turning into a rude, miserable and nasty old grump.
In "Crabby Author", Arnold was doing a school report about her, but she only told him that what she had written previously was all lies and he was wasting his time. Arnold, however, was able to straighten her out a little when he said that the books she wrote still mattered to him and it should still matter to her too only she stopped believing in her books and herself.
After that, she finally wrote a new book called "The Mean Old Witch and the Weird Headed Boy" based on her experience with Arnold and went back to writing. She made a cameo on the beach at the end of "Summer Love," implying that she stopped being a hermit.
