1874–1951
A Dutch novelist and journalist who wrote with a sharp eye for social life, she moved easily between serious fiction, popular reading, and books for younger audiences. Her long career made her a familiar name in early 20th-century Dutch literature.

by Jeanne Kloos-Reyneke van Stuwe
Born in 1874, she built a varied writing career in the Netherlands as both an author and a journalist. Reliable Dutch literary sources describe her as a prolific novelist, and her work also included writing for younger readers.
She published across several decades and became known enough to be included in major Dutch literary reference works. A portrait from 1919 and later references to her writing suggest a public literary presence that lasted well into the first half of the 20th century.
She died in 1951. Although she is not widely known in English today, Dutch archives and literary databases remember her as a productive writer whose career connected journalism, fiction, and youth literature.
