Eletelephony, a literary nonsense verse, is one of her best-known children's poems. Laura Elizabeth Howe was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on February 27, 1850. Her father, Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe, was an abolitionist who founded the Perkins Institution and the Massachusetts School for the Blind. She was named after his famous deaf-blind student, Laura Bridgman. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" was written by her mother, Julia Ward Howe. Laura and Henry Richards got married in 1871. In 1876, he accepted a management position at his family's paper mill in Gardiner, Maine, where he moved with his wife and three children.
