Autorenporträt
Eleanor Emily Hodgman Porter was an American novelist born on December 19, 1868, in Littleton, New Hampshire. She is best known for creating the Pollyanna series, beginning with Pollyanna in 1913, which became a cultural sensation due to its portrayal of an optimistic young girl who finds joy in life's challenges. Before becoming a novelist, Porter studied at the New England Conservatory of Music. She was the daughter of Francis Fletcher Hodgman and Llewella French Hodgman. While Pollyanna was her most famous work, Porter wrote several other novels, though none achieved the same level of acclaim. Her writing was characterized by its focus on positive themes, resilience, and personal growth. Porter s work continues to be loved for its emphasis on hope and kindness, and her influence can still be seen in the many adaptations and versions of Pollyanna in literature and media. She passed away on May 21, 1920, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at the age of 51. Her contributions to children's literature and moral storytelling remain significant in American literary history.
