|  Speare, Elizabeth George
Elizabeth George Speare (November 21, 1908 - November 15, 1994) was born in Melrose, Massachusetts, and lived much of her life in New England, the setting for many of her books. She discovered her gift for writing at the age of eight and began composing stories while still in high school. After completing her Bachelor of Arts degree at Smith College in 1930, she earned her Master’s degree in English from Boston University and taught English at several private Massachusetts high schools from 1932 to 1936. In 1936 she met her future husband, Alden Speare, and together the two moved to Connecticut where they married and raised two children.
Speare wrote numerous magazine articles and experimented with one-act plays. Her work saw circulation in Better Homes and Gardens, Women’s Day, Parents, and American Heritage. Publishing her first novel in 1957, Speare won many awards for her historical fiction novels, including two Newbery Medals. She is cited as one of the Educational Paperback Association’s top 100 authors and has been called one of America’s 100 most popular children’s authors. Much of her work has become mandatory reading in many schools throughout the nation. | | |
