Born in Marylebone, London, she spent her early years in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, France, and was the only daughter of French barrister Louis Belloc and English feminist Bessie Parkes. Her younger brother was the renowned writer Hilaire Belloc. She married Frederick Sawrey A. Lowndes in 1896. Lowndes began her literary career with the biography H.R.H. The Prince of Wales: An Account of His Career (1898) and continued writing novels, memoirs, and plays for nearly five decades, publishing at least one work per year. Her novels were known for their exciting incidents and psychological depth, with two of them adapted for the screen. Among her most famous works were The Lodger (1913) and The Chink in the Armour (1913). In her autobiographies, I, Too, Have Lived in Arcadia (1942) and Where Love and Friendship Dwelt (1948), she chronicled her life and her family s history.
