Ann Sophia Stephens (1810–1886), an American novelist and magazine editor, was a prolific writer who played a significant role in the early development of American popular fiction. Born in Derby, Connecticut, she began her literary career with poetry before moving on to novels. Stephens was celebrated for her contributions to the emerging genre of the dime novel, and her narratives often featured themes of romance, domestic life, and adventure, catering to the tastes of a broad readership during the mid-19th century. Her work 'The Gold Brick': or, The Phantoms of the Glen, published in 1873, is among her notable contributions to the literary world. This novel, like many of her works, captures the spirit of popular fiction of the time, resonating with readers through its blend of suspense and moral lessons. Stephens was also the author of several other noteworthy titles such as 'Fashion and Famine' (1854) and 'Malaeska: The Indian Wife of the White Hunter' (1860), which was one of the first dime novels ever published. Her literary style, often characterized by melodrama and didacticism, mirrored the cultural and social sensibilities of her era and cemented her place as a significant figure in the development of American dime novels and sentimental literature (Okker, 2003).
