Another answer from our community: Many people believe that the original author is Isaiah, as inspired by God.
Answer
Jesus Himself said Isaiah wrote Isaiah: Mar 7:6 And answering, He said to them, Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, hypocrites; as it has been written: "This people honors Me with the lips, but their heart is far away from Me;
Mar 7:7 and in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."
This is quoted fro Isaiah 29:13:-
Isa 29:13 And the Lord says, Because this people draws near with its mouth, and they honor Me with its lip; but its heart is far from Me, and their fear of Me is taught by the commandments of men;
Mat 12:17 So that might be fulfilled that spoken throughIsaiah the prophet, saying, "...
Mat 8:16 And evening having come on, they brought to Him many having been possessed by demons. And He cast out the spirits by a word, and He healed all those having illness,
Mat 8:17 so that it might be fulfilled that spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, "He took upon Himself our weaknesses, and bore our sicknesses." (Quoted from Isa. 53:4)
A:
Isaiah, son of Amoz, is accepted as the original author of Isaiah chapters 1 to 39, although there have been many changes and additions to what Isaiah actually wrote. The Book of Isaiah originally ended at this point.
An anonymous author, now known as Second Isaiah or II Isaiah, wrote a separate scroll during the Babylonian Exile. This was later appended to the Book of Isaiah and now forms chapters 40-55. A third author, now known as Third Isaiah, soon after the Babylonian Exile wrote another scroll that was also appended, as chapters 56-66.

Was Isaiah a shepherd?
Isaiah was one of the major prophets in the Old Testament.

The Bible does not say if Isaiah was a shepherd or not. Little is known of Isaiah before he became a prophet.
How is Isaiah's prophecy accomplished against Israel and Judah?
Isaiah 1:1 introduces the book as the work of Isaiah, son of Amoz, who lived in Judah during the reigns of the Judahite kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, early in the seventh century BCE. The Book of Isaiah then omits the 150 year period from Hezekiah to the fall of Jerusalem and recommences with the Babylonian Exile. The remainder of the Book of Isaiah was written in Babylon in the middle of the sixth century BCE and finally after the Return from Exile. The three authors of the separate works that later became the Book of Isaiah are sometimes known as First Isaiah (I Isaiah), Second Isaiah (II Isaiah) and Third Isaiah (III Isaiah). Much of First Isaiah's writing was in the form of oracles, vague comments and predictions that could be interpreted in many ways. Reading them in hindsight, it is almost always possible to link an oracle to a future event in some way. First Isaiah witnessed the fall of Israel, so at the time he wrote his book, this was no longer a prophecy. He did not predict the Babylonian Exile, which was far off in the future, but Second Isaiah wrote of the events in Babylon.

No-one predicted the Babylonian Captivity. It was once thought that Isaiah did, because he wrote of the times of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, but then began to write of the Babylonian Exile. However, scholars now know that the Book of Isaiah was really written by two different people. Isaiah, known today as First Isaiah for convenience, wrote about the time of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, just as he outlined in the introduction to the Book. Another, anonymous author, living during the Babylonian Exile, added to the Book, based on his personal experiences during the Exile.
Why did the prophet Isaiah go into exile?
There is no evidence that the prophet Isaiah ever went into exile. Isaiah 1:1 introduces the book as the work of Isaiah, son of Amoz, who lived in the reigns of the Judahite kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah. He wrote about events that occurred during the reigns of those kings, without any hint of being exiled. However, the Book of Isaiah is considered to have been a composite work. An anonymous author, with a different writing style, continued the Book of Isaiah more than a hundred years later, during the Babylonian Exile. This author may have been born in exile.
