    Susan Warner

    Susan Warner (1819–1885) was an American writer of multiple genres including religious fiction. She was born in New York City but grew up in a farmhouse after her father lost their family’s fortune. She began writing to generate income, starting with her first novel, The Wide, Wide World. After it was published in 1850, Warner’s career began to flourish with the addition of Queechy (1852) and The Hills of the Shatemuc (1856). She became known for her vivid descriptions of American life with faith-based themes.
