No one knows who wrote the gospels.
No; Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were individuals writers of the four Gospels.
-----------------------There were many gospels written, and four of these were selected for inclusion in the New Testament - the gospels now known as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. These gospels were originally written anonymously and only attributed by the Church Fathers to the apostles whose names they now bear, later in the second century. However, scholars say that there is no good reason to believe that these gospels were really written by the apostles, and in fact they could not have been written by eyewitnesses to the events they portray. The gospels were written in completely different styles and contain some passages that define very different theologies, so they were certainly written by separate authors.So: the four gospels of the Bible had four different authors, but we do not actually know who they were.

Quite a few gospels are known to have been written, most of them attributed to various of the apostles although biblical scholars say that none of the apostles really wrote any of the gospels. Only four gospels were selected for inclusion in the Bible - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Matthew, Mark, and Luke are called synoptic gospels because they are from the same point of view.John is the four gospel, written to fill in for the others and to help those find Jesus who did not know him in person.
