E.D.E.N. SouthworthEmma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth was an American author of over 60 books in the latter part of the 19th century. She was the most famous American writer of her time. In her novels, she gives more focus on her heroine and often challenges the curent view of Victorian women's privacy. The Hidden Hand (1859) was her well famous novel, and her personal favourite was Ishmael (1876). E. D. E. N. Southworth was born on December 26, 1819, in Washington, D.C by Susannah Wailes and Charles LeCompte Nevitte, a Virginia merchant. Her father died in 1824 and, at the request of his deathbed, it was christened Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte. She began writing stories to help herself and her children when her husband died in 1844. Her most unforgettable story, The Irish Refugee, was featured in the Baltimore Saturday Visitor. Some of her early work appeared in The National Era, the newspaper that printed Uncle Tom's Cabin. The maximum of her work was later reflected in Robert E. Bonner's New York ledger, and in 1857 Southworth signed an agreement to compose exclusively for this publication. The best of her agreement was, that Southworth signed with Bonner in 1856 and the eminences of her distributed books brought her about $10,000 a year, making her one of the highest paid writers in the country.
