About the author
Born in Ohio in 1859, she became an American novelist whose work found a large readership in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She is especially associated with popular religious fiction, including historical novels set in biblical times.
Her best-known books include Titus: A Comrade of the Cross and Stephen: A Soldier of the Cross, works that helped establish her reputation for vivid storytelling shaped by Christian themes. She also wrote for magazines, and her fiction was widely read in its day.
She died in 1937. A portrait appears on her Wikipedia page, but the image surfaced there was only a very small thumbnail rather than a clear, verifiable portrait file, so a reliable profile image was not included here.
