Autorenporträt
Frederic Stewart Isham was born on March 29, 1865, in Detroit, Michigan, to Charles Storrs Isham and Lucy B. Mott. He began his education in the United States and later studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London for two years. Originally involved in the theater, Isham transitioned from writing plays to novels, drawing heavily on his theatrical experience to craft engaging narratives. He married Helen Margaret Frue in 1895 and lived much of his life in New York. His first novel, The Strollers, emerged from his time in the theater, and many of his works were illustrated by notable artists like Harrison Fisher and Max J. Spero. Known for brisk storytelling rather than strict realism, Isham's novels received both popular and critical attention. Several were adapted into films, including Three Live Ghosts and Nothing But the Truth, the latter of which also inspired a stage musical. Frederic S. Isham died on September 6, 1922, leaving behind a legacy of accessible and imaginative fiction.
