According to Wikipedia, Apollodorus was an Epicurean philosopher, and head of the Epicurean school in Athens. According to Diogenes Laërtius, he was surnamed Tyrant of the Garden from his exercising a kind of tyranny or supremacy in the garden or school of Epicurus. He was the teacher of Zeno of Sidon, who succeeded him as the head of the school, about 100 BC. He is said to have written upwards of 400 books, but they have all perished.
