Autorenporträt
Myrtle Reed was an American novelist, poet, journalist, and philanthropist who born on September 27, 1874. Under the pen name Olive Green, she released a number of best-selling books as well as a collection of cookbooks. She was the daughter of minister Hiram von Reed and writer Elizabeth Armstrong Reed. In 1874, she received her diploma from Chicago's West Division High School. James Sydney McCullough, a young Irish Canadian who was in charge of editing a student newspaper, was a frequent correspondent. In her Chicago apartment, she overdosed on sleeping powder on August 17, 1911, when she was 36 years old. The day after she committed herself, her note to her maid, Annie Larsen, was released. During her funeral, Paradise Flat, the house where she passed away, was broken into. Several de luxe or autographed, slipcase, limited-edition publications authored by the deceased were among the stolen goods.
