Autorenporträt

Vingie E. Lawton Roe was an American novelist and screenwriter. Vingetta Elizabeth Roe was born in Oxford, Kansas, and reared in Oklahoma Territory. She is the daughter of physician Maurice Pool Roe and Clara Castanien Roe. As a child, she was barred from attending school due to her poor vision. She temporarily attended Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College in 1902. She belonged to the Berkeley Branch of the California Writers Club, the Sacramento Branch of the League of American Penwomen, and the Authors League of America. Roe created almost thirty books, usually Westerns "with a feminist twist," as well as dozens of novellas published between 1906 and 1930 in periodicals such as Sunset, Munsey's, McCall's, and Collier's. Her stories were also published serially in newspapers. Her debut novel, The Maid of the Whispering Hills (1912), was commended as "a big novel by an author of great promise" in a San Francisco Call review. "I stand for clean literature," she told a group of writers in 1929. "I have never written a dirty sex story and I never will." Her stories have been made into eight silent films and one sound film.
