Autorenporträt
Grace Livingston Hill was born on April 16, 1865, in Wellsville, New York, to Rev. Charles M. Livingston and Marcia Macdonald Livingston. Raised in a devout Christian household, she was surrounded by storytelling and religious instruction from an early age. Her literary career began with short stories and Sunday school contributions, eventually expanding into a prolific output of over 100 novels. After the death of her first husband, she relied on writing as a means to support herself and her children. Many of her novels focus on young women facing moral and personal dilemmas, often finding strength through Christian faith. She occasionally wrote under the name Marcia Macdonald in honor of her mother. Hill's works are marked by clear spiritual values, romantic elements, and characters undergoing personal transformation. She remarried later in life but remained committed to her writing. Her daughter, Ruth Munce, continued the literary tradition and became a Christian writer and educator. Grace Livingston Hill passed away on February 23, 1947, in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania. Her enduring popularity is rooted in the emotional depth and spiritual conviction found in her faith-driven stories.
