Mary Elizabeth Braddon was a British actress and novelist. Her fiction resembled her life, which was sensational and controversial; yet, from her first novel, Lady Audley's secret, Braddon was exceptionally popular. Through more than eighty novels she flouted Victorian literary conventions while helping to shape the modern crime novel, all the while shocking her audience and the general public with her unconventional lifestyle.
