About the author
Elizabeth Ashe is a pen name linked in library and public-domain catalog records to Georgiana Pentlarge. The small trail she left behind suggests a writer of short fiction whose work appeared in The Atlantic Monthly in the early 20th century.
Today, she is best remembered through anthology appearances and audio/public-domain catalogs rather than a large standalone bibliography. Records for Atlantic Narratives: Modern Short Stories and its second series list her among the contributors, and LibriVox notes that Elizabeth Ashe was the pen name of Georgiana Pentlarge.
Very little biographical information appears to be readily confirmed online beyond those publication traces, so her life remains somewhat shadowy. That makes her work especially interesting for readers who enjoy rediscovering lesser-known magazine-era authors.
