Autorenporträt
Honor Willsie Morrow was an American novelist, short story writer, and magazine editor born Nora Bryant McCue on February 19, 1880, in Ottumwa, Iowa, to William Dunbar McCue and Lillian Bryant Head. She was raised among a collection of classic literature that influenced her early love for reading and writing. After earning her degree in English from the University of Wisconsin in 1902, she married Henry Elmer Willsie in 1904 and spent several years traveling across the U.S., including time in the Arizona desert and mining regions. These travels provided firsthand knowledge that she later incorporated into her fiction. Her career began with encouragement from Theodore Dreiser, leading to the publication of her first novel, The Heart of the Desert, in 1913 under the name Honor Willsie. From 1914 to 1919, she edited The Delineator before focusing solely on writing. She authored several novels, including The Great Captain trilogy about Abraham Lincoln. In 1923, she married publisher William Morrow, with whom she had four children. She died on April 12, 1940, in New Haven, Connecticut, leaving a legacy as a respected literary figure and editor.
