Autorenporträt
Florence Huntley, born in 1855 in Alliance, Ohio, was an American journalist, editor, humorist, and occult author. She gained recognition for her work in the late 19th century, especially her contributions to the Spoopendyke sketches alongside her husband, writer Stanley Huntley, whom she married in 1879. Huntley was educated at Ohio Wesleyan University and became a notable figure in both the literary and journalistic fields. Her writing often touched on themes of mysticism, the occult, and human nature, providing a blend of humor and philosophical depth. As a journalist, she worked with a keen wit, often offering satirical takes on contemporary social issues. Additionally, Huntley was deeply interested in the metaphysical and esoteric, which influenced her occult writing, a lesser-known but fascinating aspect of her career. Although her works were highly regarded in her time, she did not achieve lasting fame in comparison to other contemporaries. Huntley passed away on February 1, 1912, at the age of 57 in Oak Park, Illinois, but her contributions to humor, literature, and mysticism continue to be of interest to scholars and readers alike.
