About the author

Born in Boston in 1860, Arthur Warren became an American journalist and writer whose career was closely tied to London. Sources describe him as having spent part of his career as the London correspondent for the Boston Herald, and his own later book looked back on the years after he arrived in London as a young man.

Warren wrote London Days: A Book of Reminiscences (1920), a memoir-like collection centered on London life, literary society, and the notable figures he encountered. Records also connect him with work as a dramatic critic and with writing on George Westinghouse, showing a career that moved between journalism, biography, and cultural commentary.

He died in 1924. While reliable biographical details about his life are limited online, the surviving record presents him as a sharp observer of late 19th-century London, with a gift for turning firsthand experience into accessible, conversational prose.
