Pioneering fabulist (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aesop

(Other definitions for aesop that I've seen before include "A classical fable teller" , "Author of many fables" , "Poses as ancient Greek writer" , "Ancient Greek author of moral tales" , "his writings were fabulous" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
