Edith Wharton

Overview

Edith Wharton (born Edith Newbold Jones; January 24, 1862–August 11, 1937) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist, short story writer, and designer. She was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927, 1928 and 1930.

She was well acquainted with many of her era's other literary and public figures, including Theodore Roosevelt.
