Louisa May Alcott was an female American author.
American author.
American author of novels, stories, and poetry, best known for Little Women and other juvenile novels. Sometime resident of Concord, Mass. Second daughter of Transcendentalist, educator, lecturer, and author A. Bronson Alcott and Abigail May Alcott. Born in Germantown, Penn., Nov. 29, 1832; died in Boston, Mass., Mar. 6, 1888. Her childhood was spent mainly in Boston and Concord. In 1843, she lived with her family at the Fruitlands utopian community in Harvard, Mass., returning to Concord in Jan. 1844. She was educated largely by her father, whose difficulty in supporting the family made it necessary for Louisa to contribute to the family income--as teacher, seamstress, governess, companion, domestic, and (ultimately and most successfully) writer. Louisa's Flower Fables (a collection of fairy stories written for Emerson's daughter Ellen) was published in 1855. Hospital Sketches (consisting of revised versions of Louisa's letters home from Georgetown during a stint as a Civil War nurse) was published in 1863. Moods appeared in 1864, the first part of Little Women in 1868, the second in 1869. With the publication of Little Women, her success, popular and financial, was assured. From that point, she turned out sequels to Little Women and other juvenile works with remarkable regularity. She wrote extensively for periodicals and took on the editorship of Merry's Museum in 1868. She published thrillers and potboilers pseudonymously under various names, notably as A.M. Barnard. Louisa May Alcott was a supporter of woman's suffrage and of temperance.
Alcott was an American novelist, particularly famous for the novel Little women.
Mary C. Pratt owned "The Wayside," a house in Concord, Massachusetts, in which she operated a boarding school for girls from 1873-1879.
Josephine Dutton taught there in 1873; her daughter, Josephine Webster, donated the letter to Smith College. "The Wayside" was owned by a number of prominent figures, including members of the literary Alcott and Hawthorne families, and is now a museum.
