Autorenporträt
Edmund Lester Pearson (1880-1937) was an American librarian and writer, best known for his contributions to the true crime genre. He gained widespread recognition for his detailed account of the infamous Lizzie Borden murder case, which solidified his place in the genre. Pearson's writing combined thorough investigative research with captivating storytelling, bringing attention to notorious criminal cases from history. In addition to his literary work, Pearson had a distinguished career in library science. He began at the Library of Congress in 1906, working in the Copyright Division, and later became the acting librarian of the Military Information Division at the War Department in 1908. From 1906 to 1920, he also wrote a weekly column called ""The Librarian"" for the Boston Evening Transcript. Pearson authored several books, including The Librarian at Play (1911), a whimsical take on library life, and The Believing Years (1912), his autobiography. He also wrote The Voyage of the Hoppergrass (1912), a humorous adventure novel. Pearson's work in both true crime and library science left a lasting impact on his fields.
